Orange Aperol Sun

By Joanne Weir

5.0

(3)

This Italian spin on the Mimosa gets its unique flavor from Aperol, a bright-orange Italian liqueur made from bitter oranges, rhubarb, and herbs. It’s similar to Campari, but less bitter and more floral. In Italy, Aperol is served on the rocks mixed with Prosecco and a splash of club soda. In this recipe, the club soda has been replaced with a little fresh orange juice.

Ingredient tip:

Aperol is available at some liquor stores and online from bevmo.com. A 750-ml bottle costs about $25.
