Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 oz. Aperol
- 3.5 oz. apple cider
- Prosecco, to top
- Club soda, to top
Instructions
- Fill Glass with Ice: Start by filling a large wine glass or tumbler with ice cubes to chill the drink and keep it refreshing.
- Add Aperol and Apple Cider: Pour 1 ounce of Aperol and 3.5 ounces of apple cider over the ice for the base flavors of the cocktail.
- Top with Prosecco and Club Soda: Slowly top the glass with prosecco until nearly full, then add a splash of club soda for extra fizz and a light finish.
- Gently Stir: Use a bar spoon or straw to gently stir the ingredients together, mixing flavors without losing carbonation.
- Garnish and Serve: Optionally garnish with a slice of apple or an orange twist, then serve immediately to enjoy the effervescent and fruity spritz.
Notes
- For a non-alcoholic version, substitute Aperol with a non-alcoholic bitter orange syrup and use sparkling apple cider instead of prosecco.
- Use chilled prosecco and apple cider to keep the drink cold without diluting it with too much ice.
- Add a cinnamon stick garnish for a spiced twist, especially in fall and winter seasons.
- Adjust the amount of club soda to taste, depending on how strong or light you prefer your spritz.
