Imagine, if you will, that we are seated at a quaint table in Harry’s Bar in Venice, amidst the lively ambiance of Dos Spritz hour. The warmth of the day envelops us as the Piazza San Marco throngs with vibrant activity. We are savoring the iconic Venetian Aperol Spritz—its radiant orange hue and bittersweet complexity, harmoniously blended with Prosecco, a sparkling Italian wine renowned for its delicate fruitiness, and finished with a refreshing splash of soda water.

Directions
Add ice to a wine glass until it is nearly full.
Pour in the Aperol (I usually eyeball this and pour until I’ve filled about one-third of the glass).
- Pour in an equal amount of Prosecco. Top your drink off with a splash of club soda and add a slice of orange. Enjoy!
Recipe Note
Make it less bitter: Use less Aperol and more Prosecco.
Make it less boozy: Use more club soda, and less Aperol and Prosecco.
