History

Adapted from the Cointreau Fizz- a cocktail comprising of 2 parts Cointreau, 1 part lime juice and 3 parts soda water, created in the early 1950s by Jean Lupoïu who was a famous Parisian bartender. The Cointreau Fizz is turned into the Fizz Spritz by swapping out and rebalancing the acidity of lime juice with that of dry white wine.

Review

Crisp and grassy Sauvignon Blanc wine balances the rich, zesty orange invigorated with sparkling soda water

I tried with 4 cl. Muller Thurgau. More balanced.

I thought it was pretty good, but I also thought that the Cointreau dominated the cocktail. The sauvignon blanc I used has a pronounced tart apple note that I like - the orange of the Cointreau overwhelmed the apple and the sweetness of the Cointreau eliminated the tartness. I'll likely try a couple other spritzes before coming back to this.
