"It's easy to make with 3 ingredients. This Italian drink is a simple combination of Prosecco, Aperol, and sparkling water. It's traditionally garnished with an orange slice too, which I think is not to be skipped. It's perfectly balanced. Just like Labor Day weekend, an Aperol spritz is bittersweet. The lightly sweet sparkling wine balances the Aperol's bitter notes of rhubarb and orange peel."
"It tastes like summer. This drink will always remind me of my trips to Italy with Jack. Sitting on a patio in the summer sunshine, maybe eating bruschetta or a fresh Caprese salad... It will help me squeeze maximum summer energy into this last day of summer. So if you don't have plans for Labor Day, why not join me in making an Aperol spritz?"
Labor Day weekend often feels bittersweet, signaling the end of summer while offering anticipation for fall. An Aperol spritz combines three ingredients—Prosecco, Aperol, and sparkling water—and is traditionally garnished with an orange slice. The cocktail balances lightly sweet sparkling wine with Aperol's bitter notes of rhubarb and orange peel. The drink evokes summer memories of Italy, patios, bruschetta, and Caprese salad, and serves as a celebratory way to close the season. An orange garnish enhances fruity notes and balances bitterness. Serving the spritz with snacks continues the Italian aperitivo tradition.
