Elderflower liqueur is about 20% alcohol and sweeter than it smells. The 30 ml cordial measure from the house Hugo is too much once you switch to liqueur. Twenty millilitres is the useful pour.

A St-Germain spritz from the producer is a different recipe, often with more soda and a lemon peel and without mint. This page stays a Hugo: mint, lime, and prosecco in front.

Questions people ask

Is St-Germain the same as a Hugo Spritz?

No. St-Germain is one elderflower liqueur you can use in a Hugo. A Hugo is the whole glass: prosecco, elderflower, soda, and mint. The liqueur brand also publishes its own spritz with a different ratio.
