Four hands toast with pink Sarti Spritz cocktails against a blue sky.

A colorful toast to the final days of summer.

The Sarti Spritz has been all over social media this summer—even if it hasn’t found a permanent place on every menu yet. 

The blush-hued drink is picking up traction among spritz devotees as love for sparkling concoctions is on the rise. 

Daniel Kutch, Italian spirits portfolio ambassador at Campari America, says that consumption of spritzes has ticked up significantly, paving the way for new twists to join the spritzy center stage.

“Campari Group is proud to offer aperitifs that cater to all tastes, from bitter to sweet,” Kutch says. “We've seen an incredible response to Sarti as it gains momentum with consumers looking for something fresh, vibrant and a bit sweeter.”

With Sarti Rosa’s notes of blood orange, passion fruit and mango, the Sarti Spritz offers a distinct tropical sweetness. The sweeter profile will transition smoothly from sun-drenched afternoons to early autumn soirées. 

To help readers take the hype home, Campari Group shared the recipe for the “perfect” Sarti Spritz.

Sarti Spritz brings a bright splash of color to the final days of summer.
