Aperol Spritz

Wine & Cocktails
Written By Britt St. Clair

The beverage of summer, and you don’t really need a recipe. The standard ratio is equal parts Aperol and Prosecco with a splash of club soda, garnished with an orange slice.

No need to play bartender! Set up an Aperol Spritz station for your guests. Keep the Aperol, Prosecco, and sparkling water on ice, set out glasses and an ice bucket, and display a sign with the recommended ratio to welcome your guests to pour their own.
