aperol spritzer

makes 6 drinks

Aperol is an Italian aperitif that’s made from bitter orange and rhubarb.

It’s similar to Campari but

lighter, and in the summer, this cocktail of Prosecco, Aperol, and sparkling water is the most refreshing

drink.

• Ice cubes
• (750 ml) bottle Prosecco, chilled
• 12 ounces Aperol, such as Barbieri
• San Pellegrino or other sparkling water, chilled
• 6 half-round slices of orange or blood orange
• For each drink, fill a 14- to 16-ounce tumbler three-quarters full with ice.

Fill each glass two-thirds

full with Prosecco, add 2 ounces of the Aperol, a splash of San Pellegrino, and an orange slice, and

stir.

Serve ice cold.
