Bellspina Cocktail recipe
Rating
Bellspina sits in the bright, sparkling corner of the gin sour family, lengthened with bubbles for an easy-drinking, aperitivo-style serve. It doesn’t have a widely documented origin story, but it reads like a modern, menu-built cocktail: part citrusy gin cocktail, part spritz, designed to be refreshing without losing structure and bite.
You’ll find gin’s crisp botanical backbone meeting a clean hit of lemon juice, giving the drink its sharp, mouthwatering centre. Collina Viola brings a fuller, sweeter-fragrant counterpoint that softens the lemon’s edge and adds depth through the mid-palate. Prosecco lifts everything with bright, lightly fruity sparkle, turning the mix airy and brisk while keeping the balance tilted toward fresh rather than syrupy.
Serve it when you want something upbeat and sociable—ideal for pre-dinner drinks, warm afternoons, or any moment that calls for a bubbly reset. If you like gin with citrus, or you’re a spritz drinker looking for a little more backbone, this is the kind of lowball pour you’ll keep coming back to.
