Raspberry Hugo Spritz (in a Deli Container)

Inspired by the ever-iconic @olivianoceda, this Raspberry Hugo Spritz is a fresh twist on the classic. Light, floral, and full of berry flavor, it’s the kind of cocktail you want to sip outside — bonus points if it’s served in a deli container with the sun hitting just right.

Made with mint, fresh raspberries, elderflower liqueur, lemon, prosecco, and a splash of sparkling water, it’s a super simple spritz that feels effortlessly cool.

Why This Recipe Works

• The Hugo Spritz is already iconic: mint + elderflower + bubbles = aperitivo gold.
• Fresh raspberries add color and tart sweetness.
• The lemon brings brightness and balance.
• Prosecco + sparkling water = just the right amount of fizz.
• Deli container? Optional but recommended. Casual elegance at its finest.

This Raspberry Hugo Spritz cocktail feels fresh, playful, and totally unfussy. It’s what you serve when you’re hosting, but not hosting-hosting.
