Method
Cocktail
Prepare glass
Select a large wine glass (or rocks glass). Fill the glass about three-quarters full with ice cubes so the drink stays cold and the Prosecco keeps its bubbles.
Add Aperol
Pour 2 oz Aperol over the ice. Pouring Aperol first helps it integrate more evenly when you add the sparkling wine.
Top with soda
Add 1 oz chilled soda water to brighten the drink. If you prefer a slightly drier spritz, reduce the soda to 0.5 oz; for a lighter drink, increase to 1.5 oz.
Stir gently
Using a bar spoon, stir once or twice gently to combine the Aperol, Prosecco, and soda without knocking out too many bubbles.
Garnish and serve
Garnish with one fresh orange slice placed on the rim or floated in the drink. Serve immediately while cold and effervescent.
