HOW TO STOCK YOUR HOME BAR
With your bartending tools at the ready, all that’s left to do is make sure you have the essential ingredients. Here are some of the main things you’ll need for an Aperol Spritz:

TOP UP YOUR BOTTLES
There are some essential cocktail ingredients you need to add to your drinks cabinet to ensure you achieve the winning combination.
– Prosecco – the perfect mixer for an Aperol Spritz. A freshly opened bottle will always achieve the best flavour and the right amount of bubbles.
– Aperol – of course, Aperol Spritz can’t be made without Aperol! You can find our iconic orange bottle in most supermarkets or stock up on the Aperol Amazon store.
– Soda – a dash of soda water will add a little extra fizz to your Spritz.
ICE AT THE READY
Ice is an essential ingredient for many cocktails, but especially for Aperol Spritz. You should fill your large wine glass with plenty of ice before pouring your Aperol Spritz, to make sure it’s chilled and refreshing.
GARNISHES
To match the vibrant hue and zesty flavour of Aperol, oranges are the only acceptable garnish here. Simply drop an orange wedge into the glass to infuse all of the flavours.
