Consuming right away? Connect your tap and serve into a glass with ice and garnish with a slice of pear a sprig of rosemary.
Preparing in advance? Increase the pressure to 15 psi while storing to ensure the carbonation stays in your spritz, leaving it connected while it's being chilled. Always drop the pressure to 5 psi or lower while serving, otherwise it could shoot out with a vengeance!
