Description of this Aperol Spritz Metal Plate

A Spritz Veneziano (Austrian German: Spritzer, "splash"/"sparkling") or Aperol Spritz, also called simply Spritz, is an Italian wine-based cocktail, commonly served as an aperitif in northeastern Italy. It consists of prosecco, Aperol and sparkling water.

A Spritz al Campari is another popular version of this Italian wine-based cocktail, which consists of Campari, prosecco and sparkling water.

The Aperol Spritz became widely popular outside of Italy around 2018 and was ranked as the 9th best-selling cocktail in the world in 2019 by the website Drinks International.

The story of Aperol Spritz

The Spritz originated during the period of Habsburg rule in Veneto, in the 1800s, under the Kingdom of Lombardy-Venetia. Soldiers, but also various merchants, diplomats and employees of the Habsburg Empire in Veneto quickly became accustomed to drinking local wine in taverns, but they were unfamiliar with the wide variety of Veneto wines, and the alcohol content was higher than what they were used to. New arrivals began asking local hosts to spray a drop of water into the wine (spritzen, in German) to make the wines lighter; the original true spritz consisted of sparkling white wine or red wine diluted with cool water.

The Italian aperitif Aperol was created in Padua in 1919 by the Barbieri brothers. The original recipe is believed to have remained unchanged over time, but it wasn't until the 1950s that the Aperol Spritz became a popular alternative to the usual Venetian mix of white wine and soda.

In 2003, the Aperol brand was bought by the Campari group. The group positioned Aperol Spritz as "the perfect drink for social occasions", which helped quadruple sales from pre-acquisition levels.

A ready-to-drink version of the Aperol Spritz was released by the company in 2011, which contained only 8% alcohol. The goal was to give consumers the opportunity to enjoy the drink at home with minimal effort, simply by adding ice and a slice of orange.

On June 29, 2012, Aperol Spritz ventured for a Guinness World Record as the "Largest Aperol Spritz Toast". More than 2,600 people descended on Piazza San Marco in Venice and managed to win the title. On April 16, 2019, Aperol's centenary celebration was announced at a press conference in Padua.

In 2019, Rebekah Peppler wrote a controversial article in The New York Times, "The Aperol Spritz Is Not a Good Drink", criticizing the use of low-quality prosecco, the sweet taste of aperol, and dilution by ice comparing it to a Capri Sun, which sparked an outcry, including a "Rally for Aperol" in Brooklyn.

Over the years, the drink has "grown" with the infinite variety of possible additions such as a kind of liqueur (Aperol, Campari, Select, Jardesca California Aperitiva) or a bitter like China Martini or Cynar with a zest of lemon inside.

Recipe

The Spritz Veneziano is a popular northern Italian aperitif, originating in Venice, consisting of Prosecco, sparkling water and Aperol aperitif. Aperol is made with gentian, rhubarb, and cinchona, among other ingredients. It has a bright orange hue, which is why it is often popular in summer. Its name comes from "apero", the Italian slang word for appetizer, and a slice of orange. The Aperol Spritz is served in a glass filled with ice. The drink combines 3 parts Prosecco followed by 2 parts Aperol, washed down with a splash of sparkling water and garnished with a slice of orange.

More commonly, the drink is prepared with prosecco wine, a bitter liqueur such as Aperol, Campari, Cynar or, especially in Venice, Aperitivo Select, then the glass is crowned with a splash of sparkling mineral water (more often club soda). It is usually served over ice in a stemmed glass (or sometimes a wine glass) and garnished with a slice of orange, or sometimes an olive, depending on the liquor.

There is no single composition for a spritz, and it is prepared with different ingredients in different cities, meaning the alcohol content varies greatly. However, a common denominator is the presence of Prosecco and sparkling water, the rest being a wide variety of alcoholic drinks, sometimes mixed, but with an unwritten rule to preserve the red/orange color of the cocktail. Finally, add a slice of lemon, orange or an olive and a few ice cubes.
