Recipe Note
Tasting Notes
On the nose, bright orange bitters and floral honeysuckle mingle with crisp juniper. The first sip delivers Aperolâs signature bittersweet orange and rhubarb notes, followed by the ginâs vibrant citrus peel and herbal depth. The soda water lift keeps it light and bubbly, leading to a clean, effervescent finish.
Why We Love It
This Spritz is effortless yet nuanced. Conniption Ginâs citrus-forward botanicals amplify Aperolâs orange bitters, while Prosecco and soda water provide a buoyant sparkle. Every sip feels like an invitation to pause, connect, and celebrate the modern aperitif moment.
