Megan will share what it was like to step into an internship where you’re not just shadowing, you’re running a real eCommerce business. Hugo Spritz A refreshing twist on the classic spritz, the Hugo Spritz originated in northern Italy in the early 2000s. Created as a lighter, more floral alternative to the Aperol Spritz, it blends elderflower liqueur, Prosecco, soda water and fresh mint. With its crisp, aromatic profile, the Hugo quickly became a summertime favorite across Europe, and now, a go-to for intern Megan. Ingredients: 2 oz. rye whiskey 1 oz. sweet vermouth 2 dashes Angostura bitters Garnish: brandied cherry (or lemon twist, if preferred) Directions: Add the St. Germain and mint sprig into a wine glass. Gently muddle and let sit for 3 minutes. Add ice, prosecco and soda water, and stir briefly and gently to combine. Garnish with a mint sprig and a lemon wheel.
