Mexican Spritz

What if you crossed a Margarita and a Spritz? You'd get the Mexican Spritz – a sparkling, citrusy cocktail with tequila and prosecco that combines the best of both worlds. The freshness of a margarita, the lightness of a spritz. With Nomuss Margarita Mix as the base, this creative cocktail is surprisingly easy to make.

The spritz trend meets Mexico

The Italian spritz (Aperol Spritz, Limoncello Spritz) has conquered the cocktail world, but the concept is universally applicable. By combining Italian bubbles with Mexican citrus and tequila, a drink is created that feels both familiar and innovative. The Mexican Spritz is lighter than a Margarita and more complex than a standard spritz.

Preparation tips

• Use a large wine glass — Just like any spritz, you want room for ice and bubbles.
• Pour the prosecco last — Slowly along the edge of the glass to preserve the bubbles.
• Stir gently — One or two gentle stirs are enough to mix everything without losing carbonation.
• Use blanco tequila — A fresh, unaged tequila best suits the light character of a spritz.

Variations

• Spicy Mexican Spritz — Add a slice of jalapeño for a spicy variant that works surprisingly well with the bubbles.
• Mexican Rosé Spritz — Use rosé cava instead of prosecco for a more elegant version.
• Virgin Mexican Spritz — Omit the tequila and use non-alcoholic bubbles. The citrus from the Nomuss Margarita Mix carries the cocktail effortlessly.
