Aperol Spritz

Submitted by dojemi

"Several Italian regions lay claim to the origins of the Spritz. Aperol is a bright-orange Italian liqueur made from bitter oranges, rhubarb, and herbs), however, the computer is not recognizing Aperol so I have listed the ingredient simply as an orange liquor, which I'm sure would work as well but please try it with Aperol before reviewing this recipe. Thx."

I love love love Aperol Spritz. I tried a new version last night that was so good: 2 oz Aperol 1 oz of freshly squeezed pink or ruby red grapefruit juice 3 oz Prosecco or other white sparkling wine 1 oz soda water Garnish with slices of pink or ruby red grapefruit. Add lots of ice.
