Aperitivo Instructions
Aperitivo is a classic Italian cocktail that captures the essence of a pre-dinner drink. It is a refreshing and light beverage that is perfect for sipping on a warm summer evening. Aperitivo is known for its vibrant orange color and bitter taste, making it a popular choice among cocktail enthusiasts.
To make an Aperitivo, you will need a few simple ingredients and a shaker. Begin by filling the shaker with ice, then add a measure of Aperol, a popular Italian aperitif. Next, pour in a measure of gin and a measure of freshly squeezed orange juice. If you prefer a sweeter taste, you can add a splash of simple syrup.
Close the shaker and shake vigorously until the cocktail is well mixed and chilled. Then, strain the mixture into a glass filled with ice cubes. Garnish with a slice of orange or a twist of orange peel for added visual appeal.
Aperitivo is best enjoyed before a meal, as it stimulates the appetite and prepares the taste buds for the flavors to come. Its bitter notes help to awaken the senses and enhance the dining experience. This cocktail is a popular choice in Italy, where it is often served alongside traditional antipasti.
So, if you are looking to add a touch of Italian elegance to your next gathering or simply want to enjoy a refreshing drink, give Aperitivo a try. Its vibrant color, bitter taste, and lightness make it a truly delightful cocktail option.
Best served in a Cocktail Glass.
