Rosé Spritz Recipe
A light, refreshing spritz – perfect for using up leftover rosé (if there is any).
When the weather warms up, I tend to reach for longer, refreshing drinks — the kind you can pour over ice and sip slowly. More often than not, that means a spritz. From Aperol to Hugo, there are plenty of go-to favourites, but sometimes it’s nice to switch things up.
If rosé is your drink of choice in the summer, this is an easy way to give it a fresh twist. Light, crisp, and gently sparkling, the Rosé Spritz is perfect for warm afternoons when a simple glass of wine just doesn’t quite cut it.
Inspired by the Taste of Home Swedish Rose Spritz, this version pairs rosé with elderflower liqueur for a subtle floral note and a touch of citrus. The result is fresh, balanced, and just sweet enough — the kind of drink you’ll come back to all summer.
How to make a Rosé Spritz
Leftover rosé might be a rarity, but when it does happen, this is the perfect way to make the most of the dregs. A spritz transforms it into something lighter, brighter, and a little more special. With just a few ingredients, this cocktail comes together in minutes, making it ideal for last-minute plans or relaxed evenings in the garden. It’s simple, elegant, and exactly what you want to be sipping on a sunny day.

This sounds absolutely delicious, I bet it is really refreshing as well. I do love a good cocktail but I hardly ever make them at home. I love anything elderflower so wil be sure to try this out x
It’s so lovely and really easy to make as well! Let me know what you think if you do try it 🙂 x
I really like a wine spritzer and I’m also a Gin & Tonic gal so I’m sure these fruit Infusions will work in a lovely G&T! Thank you for sharing 🙂
They’re perfect in a G&T! I tried them out at the weekend and the flavour is amazing with a gin x
“Another day another cocktail recipe” is such a mood haha. This drink sounds good and easy to make! I would have never thought to add air dried fruit. Thanks for sharing!

It’s such a lovely spritz! Let me know what you think if you do try it 🙂 x
This looks like an awesome drink to try! I love the inclusion of elderflower liqueur and the infusion dried lemons sound fascinating! I have never used anything remotely like it, but I love how flavorful they sound. Thanks for sharing!
Elderflower liqueur is probably one of my favourite ingredients to add to a cocktail. It’s got a sweetness about it but it’s not sickly at all, it’s actually really light! x
Okay, I need to purchase like a million of these Nim’s Infusions products because they’re genius for cocktails such as this one! What a great concept. I’m so glad you shared this. The perfect thing to add to my bar cart.
They’re so cool aren’t they! They’ve really upped my cocktail game haha x
I was looking for a new cocktail recipe. Thank you so much for sharing 🙂
I hope you enjoy this one! x
This looks and sounds so refreshing!! Just earlier I was craving a really summery, light, tasty drink, so even though I’m still underage and couldn’t exactly enjoy this particular drink, I’m thinking I need to treat myself to something like it :’) xx
It’s so lovely and refreshing. Haha one to add to the list for when you are old enough! I’m sure you could make something similar with a rose and elderflower cordial! x
Hi Faye. That sounds like a refreshing way to help cope with the wretched heat that we’ve had for the last week or so. And I love your photos – what camera do you use?
It’s a great Summer drink! I just use my phone camera (Samsung S9) and then edit with Photoshop 🙂
I love rosé but I have tried a spritz before. Love this idea! Great post ☺️
It was my first time trying a wine spritz before and I absolutely loved it! Thanks x
Well this sounds really nice, especially for a warm summers day, fingers crossed we still have a few left. This looks really nice and refreshing! Thank you for sharing x
Here’s hoping we get some sun this weekend! x
Yummm! I love cocktails. I haven’t had a rose spritz for a long time. Love that you added a slice of dried citrus as well. I always found those being a gamechanger for cocktails and whiskey. Thanks for sharing this mix. I need to give it a try!
Nancy ✨
They’re such a game changer!! The lemon worked so well in this spritz as well 🙂 x
Sounds lovely. Pop over to my post on cocktails if you like, you might enjoy a Pomport (rose with gin).
I’ll have to check it out! x
This sounds absolutely delicious! Perfect for a hot summer afternoon. I’m not the biggest aperol fan in the world and this sounds like such a nice alternative. I’m not sure if I’ve ever had rose in a cocktail before and I’m starting to question why because this sounds amazing x
Sophie
I have no clue why I hadn’t tried rosé in a cocktail before either! It’s honestly so good and super light as well 🙂 x
How is it that I wasn’t invited to test this cocktail? hahaha Looks perfect!

This looks like a lovely drink – love the addition of the fruit for a summery twist!
They add such a lovely twist to the drink! x
I love that you put your own spin on this! I’m always trying to mix up recipes for drinks and foods (although, admittedly, I’m not very good at it haha). Thanks for sharing your recipe!
I love mixing up recipes as well! We all have different tastes so I think it’s good to switch it up to make a recipe more to your taste 🙂
Mmmm I don’t even drink but this looks and sounds so delicious and refreshing!
It’s such a lovely drink! You could probably make a non-alcoholic version of it really easily as well x
The drink looks amazing and sounds like it would be delicious. I have never seen these fruit crisps before. It’s a shame they don’t sell them here in the US.
It’s such a lovely drink! The infusions were such a game changer for me, they really elevate a drink 🙂
Oooh this sounds beautiful & such a wonderful drink!
Love, Amie ❤
