Equipment

  • Wine glass
  • Jigger or small measuring cup
  • Bar spoon
  • Citrus juicer or reamer
  • Ice cubes
  • Small knife
  • Cutting Board

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Aperol
  • 3 oz Ginger beer chilled
  • 1 oz Sparkling wine chilled
  • 0.5 oz Fresh lemon juice
  • 0.25 oz Simple syrup optional, for added sweetness
  • Ice cubes
  • 1 Orange slice for garnish

Instructions

  • Fill the wine glass halfway with ice cubes.
  • Measure and pour in the Aperol.
  • Add the fresh lemon juice.
  • Stir gently with the bar spoon.
  • Top off with ginger beer, then sparkling wine.
  • Stir gently again to mix without losing bubbles.

Notes

Use dry sparkling wine to balance the ginger beer's sweetness. Skip the simple syrup if your wine is already sweet. Keep all ingredients chilled for the best result and avoid shaking to preserve carbonation.
