Nothing screams summer like an Aperol Spritz.

It’s the perfect warm-weather cocktail and you’ll find everyone all over Bella Italia sipping on it.

It light, ultra-refreshing, and full of bubbles and the slice of orange adds a fruity twist. It tastes like summer and looks like a gorgeous sunset over the Italian Rivera.

And it’s the perfect way to bring a little piece of Italy to any celebration.
