Aperol Spritz (per serving)
Batch for 12 servings
Method
Aperol Spritz (per serving)
- 1
Chill glass
If possible, chill a large wine glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes before assembling to keep the drink colder longer.
- 2
Add ice
Fill the chilled large wine glass about three-quarters full with ice cubes (approximately 1 cup).
- 3
Pour Aperol
Measure and pour 3 tablespoons Aperol over the ice.
- 4
Add Prosecco
Slowly pour 4 oz chilled prosecco into the glass. Pour gently to preserve bubbles; aim for a 3:2 ratio of prosecco to Aperol (here roughly 4 oz to 3 tbsp).
- 5
Top with soda
Add 1 oz chilled soda water to top the drink and give it a light effervescence. Stir gently once with a bar spoon to combine without losing carbonation.
