A recipe blog by the person who makes Spritz.
The Spritz iOS app helps you make cocktails from the bottles you already own. This blog is the long-form companion — the same recipes, plus a short note from me on each one.
This is Fritz.
He is the friendly bartender on the Spritz app icon. He does not write the blog — that is me — but he keeps an eye on the tone. If a draft starts to sound like a wine forum, Fritz steps in.
What you will find here
Cocktail recipes — the same ones I keep in the Spritz iOS app, posted here so they are linkable, searchable, and subscribable. A short note from me on each one explaining what I like about it, where the recipe came from, and what to do if you do not have one of the ingredients. Then the recipe itself.
How I test them
I test every recipe on a few friends and my wife before it goes up, and use their feedback to figure out the substitutions and additions worth suggesting — if two people independently reach for the same swap, that goes in the post.
What I won't do
No sponsored posts. No invented "secret bartender's tricks." No pretending a $200 bottle is necessary when a $30 bottle does the job. And no recipes with twelve ingredients when four will do.
