    Notes

    A few helpful tips to perfect your cocktail:
    Choose fresh and ripe tangerines for the best flavor.
    If you like a sweeter drink, mix in a dash of simple syrup.
    Adjust the amount of Aperol to suit your taste.
    For a stronger drink, you can add a splash of vodka.
    Make sure to chill your glass beforehand for a crisp experience.
