- 1
Chill glass and ingredients
If possible, chill the wine glass (or large stemmed goblet) in the freezer for 5–10 minutes ahead of time. Ensure the Prosecco and soda water are well chilled.

Fill glass with ice
Fill a large wine glass about three-quarters full with fresh ice (approximately 1 cup). The ice keeps the drink cold and slows dilution.

Measure and add Aperol
Pour 3 tablespoons (about 1.5 fl oz) of Aperol over the ice. This is the bitter-sweet base of the spritz.

Add Prosecco
Slowly pour 3 fl oz of chilled Prosecco into the glass. Pour gently to preserve the bubbles and to create a layered effect.
