Don’t feel like following the classic Aperol Spritz recipe by buying a bottle of sparkling, Aperol and soda? Never mind, Aperol has thought of you by launching its ready-to-drink version of Aperol Spritz. You can drink it straight from the bottle, but I advise you to pour it without a glass filled with ice and add the classic slice of orange.
