📜 History
The Cynar Spritz is a variation on the Italian aperitivo spritz built on the traditional 3-2-1 ratio of sparkling wine, bitter liqueur, and soda. Cynar, the artichoke-based amaro created by Angelo Dalle Molle in Venice in 1952, takes the place of the sweeter Aperol. Its 13-botanical blend, with artichoke leaf as the starring ingredient, gives the spritz a more complex, earthy character while retaining the refreshing drinkability the format is known for.
