Notes

  • Chill your ingredients -  For the best results, make sure your Prosecco and soda water are well chilled before making the cocktail. This ensures that your Aperol Spritz is refreshing and cold from the first sip to the last.
  • Use quality ingredients - Since the Aperol Spritz is a simple cocktail with few ingredients, using high-quality Prosecco and Aperol can make a significant difference in taste. 
  • Experiment with garnishes - While a fresh orange slice is classic, feel free to get creative with your garnishes. Try adding additional citrus twists, fresh berries, or herb sprigs to customize the cocktail to your liking and elevate its visual appeal.
