- Serve immediately: Enjoy your refreshing apricot spritzer right away!
Recipe Tips:
- Chill Your Glasses: Ensure your glasses are chilled before serving to keep the spritzer refreshing for longer.
- Choose Quality Nectar: Use high-quality apricot nectar for the best flavor. Cheaper options may taste too sugary.
- Pour Slowly: Pour the sparkling wine slowly to avoid overflowing and preserve the bubbles.

- Garnish for Elegance: Add a thin apricot slice or a mint sprig for a touch of elegance and extra flavor.
How To Store Leftovers?
Apricot Spritzer is best served fresh and isn’t typically stored for later. If needed, cover any leftover spritzer and refrigerate for up to 1 day. Stir before serving.
