According to legend, the Aperol Spritz Cocktail dates back to 19th-century northern Italy, where Austrian soldiers added a splash of water to the local wines in order to make them more drinkable. While the classic Aperol Spritz may have originated in Italy, these bubbly cocktails have quickly become an international favorite. I particularly like them during the warmer summer months, when sipping a cold, refreshing drink hits the spot.

How to Make a Spritz Cocktail:
Although the Aperol Spritz is by far the best-known spritz, there are many variations when it comes to spritz cocktails. Typically the drink includes a combination of Prosecco, wine or champagne, topped with soda water and a spirit. They are by far a more approachable drink than most others. If you want to mix up a few spritz cocktails for yourself, I’ve put together some of my favorites; all of which are incredibly simple to make at home. Minimal tools needed include: a jigger, large wine glass and a bar spoon for stirring.
