This 3-ingredient Frozen Aperol Spritz Cocktail is a fun twist on the classic Aperol Spritz and perfect for a hot day.
We've taken the popular bubbly Italian cocktail and given it a frozen twist! The traditional Aperol spritz has 3 parts Prosecco, 2 parts Aperol, and 1 part soda water. It is typically served over ice with an orange slice for garnish.
This frozen cocktail departs slightly from the classic spritz ratio and uses fresh orange juice to balance the flavors. It makes the best light and refreshing drink for hot summer days.
