The most popular of the spritzes, the Aperol Spritz was first introduced over 50 years ago in Italy. While individual preferences vary, this is the "official" recipe from Gruppo Campari, the owners of the Aperol brand since 2003. You can scale the recipe up or down as needed to fill your glass.

Courtesy of our friend Brian Sandahl of Heavy Muddle, this cocktail is the perfect balance of bittersweet and bubbly for a summer sip.
