There are a million riffs on the Aperol Spritz, including very tasty frozen versions and one at Hooch in Aspen that includes muddled strawberries, but the best is still the original. The 3-2-1 recipe is printed on the back of the bottle and it’s an easy one to remember.

Aperol Spritz

Ingredients

  • Ice cubes
  • Cinzano Prosecco
  • Aperol
  • Soda water
  • Slice of orange

Preparation

In a stemmed balloon glass full of ice, combine 3 parts of Cinzano Prosecco followed by 2 parts Aperol. Add 1 part or a splash of soda water, stir gently as needed and garnish with an orange slice. The end result should be a uniform, perfect orange color.
