Is there anything more refreshing than watermelon? This cocktail combines watermelon juice, limoncello, and prosecco. You could either purchase watermelon juice or place fresh watermelon in a blender to make watermelon juice for this recipe.

This spritz made with limoncello is popular in Capri giving the cocktail a sweet sour and boozy bubbly taste. If you wanted to take the edge off, you could add a splash of lemonade to lighten things up.

This iconic cocktail has a perfect balance of sweet and bitter flavors. It is made with just 3 ingredients: Aperol, Processo, and soda. Last time I was in Florence, it was summer and in the late afternoon the patios would fill up with people enjoying Aperol Spritzes in the sun.
