Select Spritz
Select, prosecco, soda, green olive.
The proper Venetian spritz: more herbal than the Aperol, finished with an olive instead of orange.
On the palate: bitter, dry and classic. In the Italian aperitivo tradition.
Before Aperol became the default, Venice made its spritz with Select: more herbal, more rooted, less sweet. The olive isn't a gimmick, it balances the bitterness and adds a touch of salt. If you want to know where spritz actually comes from, start here.
