Aperol Spritz

By stancec44

But for good reason. Just as vibrant in taste as appearance, this Aperol Italian spritz recipe is considered the perfect summertime sip; it’s light and refreshing, while it marries crisp notes of citrus and herbs. The alcohol content is typically lower in this cocktail, making it a great option for all to toast these last warm nights as summer slips away.

Though the classic Aperol doesn’t call for it, I like to add a sprig of thyme to this Italian spritz recipe for that extra hint of freshness.
