Aperol is an aperitif with a bitter flavour that's made from infusions of bitter and sweet oranges and herbs. We've added fresh basil to this traditional Venetian favourite for a punchier cocktail.

Ingredients

Method

Fill cocktail shaker with ice. Add orange slices, basil and Aperol. Shake to muddle; strain into glass. Top with Prosecco and soda water to taste. Garnish with extra orange slice and basil, if desired.

Tip from The Test Kitchen: Fun idea: Print cocktail recipe cards so guests can make their own drinks. Or pick a friend to be the bartender!
