The Aperol Spritz just screams sunshine! Also known as Spritz Veneziano and Spritz, it’s made with Aperol, prosecco and club soda. With it’s bright hue and citrusy flavor, it reminds me of my travels to Italy.

How To Make An Aperol Spritz:

This cocktail recipe is for one glass but it doubles and triples easily! But really it’s made one at a time! This is a popular Aperitif in Venice and I enjoyed plenty when I was there! An Italian bitter, Aperol is made from gentian, rhubarb, and cinchona. It’s such a refreshing beverage!

Ok, let’s get to making it. There is really nothing to it! Fill a wine glass (or two) with ice. Of course, you can use any type of glass or even a solo cup! Using a measuring glass, add the Aperol, then prosecco and top it off with the club soda!

If you wish, garnish with an orange slice and a fun straw! You can also garnish with a lemon or lime, but the orange really captures the cocktails flavor.

Now sit back, put your feet up and just imagine sit along the canals in Venice!

Hope you enjoy!
