If you tuned in to the much-anticipated second part of Series 4 of Emily in Paris, you might have noticed something different- Emily isn’t in Paris anymore! She’s been spotted soaking up Roman culture, and what better way to do that than with a classic Aperol Spritz in hand? Off-screen, the cast is also embracing the Spritz vibes, sipping Aperol and Campari Spritzes between takes. Looks like this cocktail is having a major moment!
We’ll teach you how to master the perfect Aperol Spritz, so you can feel like you’re living la dolce vita wherever you are! It’s as simple as this:
Aperol Spritz Recipe
What You’ll Need:
- 75ml Prosecco
- 50ml Aperol
- A splash of soda water (around 25ml)
- A fresh orange slice for garnish
How to Make It:
- Fill a large wine glass to the brim with ice (trust us, the more ice, the better).
- Pour the Prosecco first to keep things bubbly, followed by the Aperol.
- Add a dash of soda, stir gently to blend the flavors, and you’re almost there.
- Finish it off with a slice of fresh orange. And there you have it—Spritz perfection!
Now you’re ready to sip like Emily herself!
