Ingredients
3 ounces (90ml) Chilled Prosecco
2 ounces (60ml) Aperol
1 ounce (30ml) Soda Water or Club Soda
Fresh Orange Slice
Large Ice Cubes
Green Olive (optional garnish)
Instructions
Step 1: Fill a large wine glass to the top with plenty of ice. The more ice you use, the slower it will melt, keeping your Aperol Spritz Recipe chilled without dilution.
Step 2: Pour 3 parts (approx. 3 oz) of chilled Prosecco over the ice. Using a chilled bottle is essential for maintaining carbonation.
Step 3: Add 2 parts (approx. 2 oz) of Aperol. Pouring the Aperol over the Prosecco helps it mix naturally.
Step 4: Top with 1 part (a splash) of soda water. This adds extra lightness to the Aperol Spritz Recipe.
Step 5: Give the mixture one very brief, gentle stir to incorporate the ingredients without losing the bubbles.
Step 6: Garnish with a fresh orange slice and an optional green olive. Serve your Aperol Spritz Recipe immediately.
Notes
Always use chilled ingredients. If your Prosecco is warm, it will melt the ice instantly and ruin the Aperol Spritz Recipe.
