I’ve always been a fan of Italy’s Prosecco sparkling wine for at least two reasons: it’s much less expensive than Champagne and it’s perfect in any kind of Spritz cocktail. (I recently brought a bottle to a friend that only drinks sweet drinks. I blended a couple of ounces with Limoncello and club soda; she…
