I came up with this version of a Strawberry Limoncello Spritz when I was last in Positano. It’s a combination of two of my favorite easy cocktails to sip on in Italy – my Limoncello Spritz and a Rossini (the signature drink of our favorite hotel in the world – Il San Pietro). You guys know how much I love my Limoncello Spritz and this time I added strawberry for a fun and refreshing summer drink! If you love strawberry and lemon as much as we do, you’ve got to try this simple and delicious cocktail!
