Aperol Spritz


The Summer weather will stick around for a few more weeks, but the feeling won't.  Labor Day is the last weekend of carefree Summer before the hectic days of Fall begin.  Before long, the grill gets covered and the crockpot comes out, and your bubbly prosecco drinks turn into bourbon manhattans.  Hold on to the season a little bit longer with a long weekend of aperol spritzes.  They do contain prosecco, which explains why it's impossible not to smile while drinking them.  And that smile is all the thanks I need :)

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

aperol

prosecco or brut champagne

club soda

orange slices

Fill a wine glass with ice, then add aperol one-third of the way up the glass, then prosecco, and top with a splash of club soda.  Stir to mix.  Squeeze your orange slice a little and add it to the glass.  Then drink...smile...drink...smile some more...
