Cameron Diaz's Refreshing New “Cambrusco Spritz” Recipe Sounds Like Fall in a Glass
I will proudly vouch for Cameron Diaz's “Whatever-You-Got” Ramen, and her summer crunch salad has become one of my favorite go-to's when I need a light lunch—but of course, her stellar seasonal recipes aren't the only things that get my attention. On occasion, I'll catch a glimpse of her organic wine brand, Avaline, on my social feed. And now that pumpkin spice season is upon us, the 52-year-old entrepreneur is sharing a cocktail recipe that will instantly transport you to the fall.
In honor of Organic Month, Cameron Diaz is sharing the full recipe for her “Avaline Cambrusco Spritz,” which is described as her unique take on the Shirley Temple. Made with Avaline's new limited-edition organic Lambrusco, Diaz notes that it has officially become her favorite fall cocktail.
She said in a statement, "It combines Avaline's fruity, fizzy Lambrusco with refreshing pomegranate-cranberry juice and sparkling water. It’s the perfect blend of tart, bubbly, and not-too-sweet, with a nostalgic touch from the maraschino cherries. Whether you’re hosting happy hour or planning a dinner party with fresh fall produce, this spritz will add a fun pop of color (and flavor) to your autumn gatherings."
The recipe only calls for five ingredients. Even better? It's surprisingly easy to make. Keep scrolling to see how it's done.
