The Terrace trend of 2025: Spritzers!

Local Products and Sustainable Offerings

Sustainability is a major driver of many hospitality trends. Customers are becoming increasingly aware of where their food and beverages come from, and that includes spritzers. The trend to use local products, such as wines, fruit juices or homemade liqueurs, offers hospitality operators an opportunity to differentiate themselves. For example, consider a spritzer with a Belgian sparkling wine or a locally made gin as a base.

Lighter, Fresher Variations

Unlike heavy cocktails, spritzers are naturally light and refreshing, making them the perfect drink for any occasion. In 2025, we see a shift to even lighter variations. 

Popular choices include spritzers with a subtle citrusy touch or a hint of spice. Think of a classic Aperol Spritz, but also fresh combinations with, for example, elderflower tonic, light gin, or even a spritzer with a bold elderflower liqueur. The key is to strike a balance between bitter and sweet, which provides a refreshing effect without making the drink feel too heavy.

Alcohol-Free and Low-ABV Options

With the increasing demand for alcohol-free and low-ABV (alcohol by volume) drinks, many brands are offering spritzers that contain less alcohol or are completely alcohol-free. These options make it possible for a wider audience to enjoy spritzers without compromising on taste or experience.
