Design company Squad Ink was asked to give Australian wine brand Sofi Spritz an Italian makeover recently.

Headed up by creative director Matthew Squadrito, the Squad Ink team was challenged to freshen up the labels for a series of Italian-style cocktails.

"Italian spritz cocktails are timeless classics, so we approached the packaging in the same way by drawing inspiration from classic, Italian soda brands," Squadrito said.

"We then added a contemporary twist that is clean, crisp and refreshing, much like the flavours of these little beauties."

The Italian cocktails have an Australian twist with South Australian riesling wine, soda, and all-natural fruit flavours of Blood Orange & Bitters and Lemon & Elderflower.
