Description

Festival Fizz is built around vodka, raspberry syrup, citrus juice, giving it a clear identity from the first sip. It follows the spritz and fizz tradition: lighter alcohol, lift from bubbles and a serve that feels celebratory without being too strong.

What makes it great is the balance: the base brings structure, the fruit or aromatic element gives personality, and the chilled serve keeps everything crisp. It has enough theatre for a cocktail menu but remains simple enough for a confident home bartender.

Serve it when the table needs a conversation starter: colourful, balanced and easy to imagine as a signature drink for a party.
