This delightful, tangy spirit serves as the base for this vibrant spritz. When mixed with dry sparkling wine and club soda, limoncello transforms into a refreshing and drinkable cocktail perfect for summer. The garnish of a fresh rosemary sprig adds an aromatic herbal note with each sip. For a beautiful and fragrant twist, you can substitute with lemon verbena or lemon thyme, both of which are lovely garnishes found at local farmer's markets.
