Amalfi Spritz (Peach Limoncello Spritz Cocktail)

If I’m looking for a fun alternative to an Aperol Spritz, the Amalfi Spritz is what I’m sipping on! If you love my famous Strawberry Limoncello Spritz, you’re going to adore this recipe too!

This summer cocktail captures the essence of the Amalfi Coast, combining limoncello with prosecco, peach nectar and

What I love about the Amalfi Spritz is its balanced flavor profile. It’a a perfect blend of sweet and tart, with the flavor of limoncello adding a zesty kick. Peach nectar brings a subtle sweetness that complements the citrus notes, making for a refreshing drink that takes me right back to Italy!

Ingredients for the Amalfi Spritz

  • Limoncello: This vibrant Italian liqueur is made from lemon zest, adding a bright base with a natural flavoring that’s like the essence of the Italian Coast in a bottle! I like Il Tramonto Limoncello.
  • Peach Nectar: Adds a rich peach flavor that pairs perfectly with the limoncello, and enhances the overall flavor profile of the cocktail. Apricot nectar works well here too.
  • Prosecco: A sparkling wine from Italy, prosecco has a fine bubble and adds a slight sweetness to the drink. I used Ruffino Prosecco. For an extra bubbly option, try Champagne.
  • Sparkling Water: A splash of sparkling water or soda water gives a refreshing, crisp finish and a must to keep the essence of a sparkling spritz. La Croix is a great choice.
  • Optional Garnishes: A lemon slice, fresh mint sprig, peach slices and edible flowers (I used violas from Gourmet Sweet Botanicals).

How to Make the Amalfi Spritz

Creating the Amalfi Spritz takes just 5 minutes! Start by filling a wine glass (I like these wine glasses) with ice cubes. Next, pour in the limoncello and peach nectar, followed by the prosecco. Stir gently to combine the flavors, then add a splash of sparkling water to lighten the drink and enhance its bubbles!

For garnish, add a slice of lemon (or a slice of orange for a bittersweet note), peach slide, and a fresh mint sprig. Top with an edible flower for the perfect finishing touch before serving immediately!

Frequently Asked Questions

What does limoncello taste like?

Limoncello is smooth and sweet with a strong lemon and lemon peel flavor and aroma. It is more sweet than tart but also has a brightness from the citrus flavors.

I can’t find peach nectar. Help!

Look for peach juice or peach puree as an alternative to peach nectar. You can also use fresh muddled peaches in this spritz, just make sure to use a sturdy stemless wine glass.

Can I make this a non-alcoholic spritz?

Yes! For a non-alcoholic version of the Amalfi Spritz, use peach nectar, sparkling water, non-alcoholic prosecco and fresh lemon juice. Combine all the ingredients in a wine glass.
