BBQ cocktails: the importance of the right drink
At a proper BBQ, food is the undisputed star, but if it's accompanied by the right drink, the result will be even more special! A good BBQ cocktail should be fresh, light, refreshing, and capable of enhancing the bold flavors of grilled meat or the lightness of grilled fish and vegetables.
So, what to drink with a BBQ? Among the most popular options are undoubtedly beer, with its versatility and fizziness, and wine, which, thanks to its full-bodied taste, pairs perfectly with the smoky flavors of the grill. However, not all guests might prefer one of these two drinks, which is why Spritz is an excellent alternative.
With its balanced mix of bubbles and freshness and its unmistakable sweet and bitter taste, it is the ideal candidate for any outdoor BBQ: perfect for spring days, it's a drink that everyone agrees on, is quick to prepare, and pairs excellently with any food cooked on the grill.
What to pair with a meat BBQ? 3 reasons to choose Spritz
If you're organizing an outing with your dearest loved ones or a lunch with new friends, here are 3 reasons why Spritz is the undisputed king of BBQ cocktails.
- It's fresh and fizzy. The freshness, bubbles, and pleasant taste of Spritz are ideal for balancing the heat of the grill and the rich flavor of meat and cheese, or the lighter taste of vegetables and fish.
- It's suitable for everyone. The delicate, pleasant, and citrusy taste of Spritz makes it one of the most loved cocktails in the world: a global success, also due to its lower alcohol content compared to wine or other cocktails and its low calorie count, making it ideal for enjoying the moment without worries.
- It's easy to make. At a large BBQ, simplicity is the key to success. With 3 easy-to-find ingredients (prosecco, Aperol or Campari, and seltzer), you can quickly prepare a delicious Spritz for everyone without spending too much time fiddling with bottles and measuring cups, especially if you choose to rely on Sprizzer, the machine for making a perfectly balanced and great-tasting Spritz just like from a bar.
