Marina Spritz

A big thank you to Nic Shanker, who showed two cool summer drinks on ZDF's "Volle Kanne" on 2 August 2022. For the Marina Spritz, he chose my liqueur - FRENZEL Grapefruit - as well as a limoncello and other ingredients. You can watch the video in the ZDF media centre.

Notes

🎬 ZDF VOLLE KANNE: This recipe was presented by Nic Shanker on the ZDF programme „Volle Kanne“ on 2 August 2022. The video is available in the ZDF media library.
🍋 LIMONCELLO TIP: Authentic Italian limoncello from the Amalfi Coast or Capri gives the cocktail the perfect Mediterranean flair. Chill the limoncello well beforehand.
🧊 ICE CUBE WEIGHT: Use large, high-quality ice cubes that melt more slowly. The glass should be filled to the brim with ice to keep the drink cool for a long time.
🍹 SERVING SUGGESTION: Best served as an aperitif before a Mediterranean meal or with light antipasti such as bruschetta, olives or grilled vegetables.
