The real Aperol Spritz

the real Aperol Spritz

When I was a young Uni student in the North-East of Italy, I used to live on bread and Aperol Spritz! Back then, outside of the Veneto area nobody really knew what that amazing drink was all about…

Fast forward some 20 years and now Aperol Spritz is one of the most well-known and drunk “cocktails” in the whole world: not bad for a drink that was so popular amongst students when I was one of them!

This is the only recipe you will need to watch to know how to make a proper Aperol Spritz… And if you like to pop your Prosecco bottles in style, you’ll find some ideas too!
