What is Aperol?
Aperol is a popular Italian liqueur best known as the main ingredient of an Aperol Spritz. With a bright orange color, slightly bitter flavor and a low alcohol content (11%) Aperol is commonly consumed before dinner as an apertif but can be used in a number of cocktails (including my delightful Aperol Sour). This frozen version of the Aperol Spritz takes liberties with the classic spritz ratio (3:2:1 prosecco, liqueur and sparking water like you’ll find in my Limoncello Spritz and Hugo Spritz) but is utterly delicious.
Ingredients
- mango chunks
- Aperol
- orange juice
- prosecco
How to Make a Frozen Aperol Spritz
This Frozen Aperol Spritz is incredibly simple to make with your blender doing all of the work. In addition to Aperol and Prosecco I use frozen mango for a hint of sweetness and a smooth texture. Add the frozen mango, Aperol, orange juice and prosecco to a high power blender. Blend on medium high speed for 30 seconds or until smooth and fully combined. Pour into a coupe glass and garnish with an orange slice. This cocktail can easily be scaled to be made for a group.
