Cascade Spritz is the newest addition to Straightaway Cocktails' ready-to-drink cocktail lineup and it combines sparkling pinot gris with mint, lavender, lemon balm and chamomile. The 8% ABV canned cocktail pays homage to Portland with local herbs and botanicals and sparkling wine sourced from Oregon and Washington producers, and Straightaway Cocktails aptly describes it as "a love letter to the Rose City."
This herbaceous, fresh and aromatic taste of this spritz is ready for leisurely sipping on warm, sunny days. The refreshing springtime beverage for adults captures the essence of meadows in the springtime, and a portion of every can sold helps to give back to the earth by supporting Friends Of Trees' tree-planting and tree-care projects.
