Method

Cocktail

  1. 1

    Prepare glass

    Select a large wine glass or rocks glass. Fill the glass generously with ice so the drink chills quickly and maintains temperature.

  2. 2

    Add Aperol

    Pour 3 tablespoons (about 45 ml) of Aperol over the ice. Let it briefly settle against the cold glass.

  3. 3

    Add Prosecco

    Carefully add 3 tablespoons (about 45 ml) of chilled Prosecco by pouring gently down the side of the glass to retain effervescence. Pouring slowly helps preserve bubbles.

  4. 4

    Top with soda

    Add 1 tablespoon (about 15 ml) of chilled soda water to lengthen and lighten the cocktail. Stir once gently with a bar spoon — one or two slow turns — to combine without flattening the bubbles.

  5. 5

    Garnish and serve

    Garnish with one fresh orange wheel placed on the rim or floated in the glass. Serve immediately while chilled and effervescent.
