Bitter orange, plenty of bubbles and a splash of soda — the aperitivo that gives you the most for the least effort.

A spritz is a ratio you can remember: three parts bubbles, two parts bitter, one part soda. Hold that and it's almost impossible to get wrong. The only real choice is how bitter you want the evening to be — and that's the fun part.

A Campari-style aperitif instead of an Aperol-style one. Same measure, a lot more character.
Double the soda, serve in a highball. Made for slow afternoons.
Non-alcoholic sparkling tea instead of the wine. Drier, more grown-up, and it holds its bubbles beautifully.
Serve chilled in a large wine glass for maximum aroma and effervescence.
This refreshing non-alcoholic spritz pairs beautifully with:
Perfect for aperitivo hour, summer gatherings, brunch, and alcohol-free celebrations.
Just the aperitif. Amalfi-style leans citrus and floral, Aperol-style is sweeter and rounder. Same build, different mood.
You can, though the wine brings acidity and a bit of weight that gives the bitterness something to lean on. Worth the bottle.
Non-alcoholic aperitifs carry a little more sugar, because sugar does some of the work alcohol used to. Reach for more soda before more bitter.
It does, and add it last — poured over the top it keeps every bubble.
