The history of the Aperol Spritz

With its origins deeply rooted in northern Italy, the Aperol Spritz has become a staple in bars throughout the country. Aperol is an Italian liquor that is characterized as having an orange sweetness with bitter herbal undertones. The term “Spritz” comes from the 19th-century Austro-Hungarian tradition of adding water to the bold wines of northern Italy to help mellow them out a bit. The Spritz term grew into a classic Italian cocktail recipe that includes wine base, bitter liquor, and a splash of soda. While people have their own preferences and bars will provide their own take on the classic recipe, one thing that all who order a Spritz must do is clarify the type of liquor that they want mixed. One of the most popular versions of this classic cocktail is the Aperol Spritz recipe.
