Your Favorite Summer Cocktail is Here: Rosé Aperol Spritz

May 9, 2023May 11, 2023Wine By Marisa Murray

The classic Aperol Spritz has been enjoyed in Italy for more than a century thanks to the country’s long-established tradition of aperitivo hour. We decided to put a fun spin on this three-ingredient, low-alcohol drink by replacing the Prosecco with Frank Family’s sparkling Brut Rosé. This concoction combines the season’s most popular tipples into a delicious, pink-hued, summer-infused cocktail that will immediately transport you to an al fresco cafe in Italy.

Ingredients

2 ozAperol
3 ozFrank Family Brut Rosé
1 ozClub soda or unflavored sparkling water
1 Ruby red grapefruit wedge for garnish

Method

  1. Add the Aperol, Brut Rosé, and club soda to a wine glass filled with ice and stir.
  2. Garnish with a grapefruit wedge and enjoy.
