Hi everyone! Today I’m sharing my Spring Drinks: Blackberry Aperol Spritz Cocktail Recipe! If you’re looking for a super refreshing, delicious, and flavorful cocktail – this is going to be your new go-to cocktail for this spring season. Keep reading to see how I made it and what makes it so fresh!
This perfect weekender drink will start quenching your thirst on these already super warm summer nights in no time. We had about 2 weeks of Spring here in TN… we’re already in full blown summer mode starting next week. Seasonal depression has been LIFTED! Memorial weekend is coming up and what better time to introduce yet another perfect pool side sipping beverage?
This particular drink is one that will transport you to being lakeside in Italy. Can you guess what it is? Other than knowing the title of this blog post and literally just reading it two paragraphs above, this is known as the ultimate Italian brunch drink. THE APEROL SPRITZ. However, I wanted to put a little twist on it because I feel like spritz type drinks can be a little dry and bitter in nature, which some people love! I like my drinks somewhere in between. Not too sweet, but not too bitter and dry either. Taking the Blackberry spin on this classic drink made all the difference! Keep reading to see the ingredients and how to make BELOW:
