Bright sunny days and warm lingering nights capture blissful summer vibes. Those moments are even more enjoyable with a cocktail in hand. Cointreau Citrus Spritz is the flavorful, yet effortless beverage, that will be part of any seasonal gathering.
Summer is spritz season. The options are many. Whether people think sipping on the vibrantly colored cocktail will give them a taste of La Dolce Vita. Or, they hope the light, effervescent cocktail is easy drinking. People cannot get enough of the beverage.
While the recipe is fairly simple, no one wants to lug multiple bottles to the backyard, pool or lake. A simple pour and enjoy option is preferrable. Cointreau Citrus Spritz is that solution.
Speaking about the new beverage, Christophe de Pous, President & CEO of Rémy Cointreau Americas said, “Cointreau has always been an essential ingredient in iconic cocktails, and Cointreau Citrus Spritz brings that same quality and flavor to the ready-to-serve space. Following a regional launch in 2025, we’re thrilled to deliver a spritz that pairs convenience with the unmistakable taste of Cointreau to U.S. consumers and spritz-lovers nationally this summer season.”
What Is Cointreau Citrus Spritz?
The Cointreau Citrus Spritz is a ready to drink spritz cocktail. Available in two flavors, Orange & Blood Orange and Lemon & Lime, the bright, zesty beverages are easy, refreshing, and effortless.
First, the ready to drink format is perfect for summer entertaining. Simply pour over ice and garnish. For drinkers who prefer a more citrus forward, wine based drink, these options are a must try.
The bubbles add a festive touch while still feeling approachable. There is no need for a crystal flute unless that makes you happy. These drinks are at home in an unbreakable wine glass or a delicate goblet.
More importantly, the flavors work with traditional summer food fare. The Lemon & Lime is a great alternative to a margarita. Instead of a heavy, sour liquor forward drink, the tangy lemon and lime lift spicy food, cut through heavy bites and balance sweet desserts.
The cocktail has the versatility that people want. Whether enjoyed at a party or just on a Saturday afternoon, it is the bottle that everyone will want chilled in the fridge.
Orange & Blood Orange has a little more sweetness and a touch of bitter. For people who love the traditional herbal forward spritz, it is a great choice.
One easy idea for serving either option, consider freezing fruit into ice cubes. Not only does this option enhance the overall flavor, it adds an engaging visual.
If someone prefers a little more flavor punch, add some fresh herbs as a garnish. A sprig of mint or basil would be delightful.
The Cointreau Citrus Spritz is available in stores now. It has a 10.5% ABV. The suggest retail price is $19.99.
