Ingredients

  • 6 ounces prosecco
  • 4 ounces Aperol
  • 2 ounces soda (sparkling water, club soda, or seltzer)
  • ice cubes
  • orange slices for garnish

Instructions

  • Fill both glasses with ice cubes.
  • Add 3 ounces of prosecco to each glass (around half full).
  • Add 2 ounces of Aperol to each glass and top with soda (about 1 ounce).
  • Garnish with orange slices and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Pro tip: Pouring the prosecco first gives the cocktail a very nice bold orange. Don't stir the cocktail because it will reduce the carbonation (fizziness).
  • Make more cocktails: The recipe can be easily increased. Just keep the ratio of 3 parts prosecco, 2 parts Aperol, and 1 part soda.
  • For a sweeter cocktail: Use Sprite (or diet Sprite) instead of club soda.
