The best garnish for your Aperol Spritz

Look, we all love an Aperol Spritz. Summery, fresh… and the quickest way to get to Europe this side of your friends’ IG Stories. So here’s how you can elevate the drink to something a little more spesh. Best of all, you only need two ingredients. 

Introducing… (drum roll for dramatic effect)… the Aperol Bomb.

Aperol Bombs

    • For the bomb: 

      250ml orange juice (pulp is ok, if you’re weird like that) 

      Sage leaves 

      Note: what’s gonna really make these nice is a round ice mould (oranges aren’t squares, obvs). Lucky for you, the high-end department store Kmart has you covered. 

    • For the Aperol Spritz: 

      90ml prosecco or sparkling white wine 

      60ml Aperol

      30ml soda water

    • 1
      In your ice moulds, pour the orange juice, then put the top of the ice tray back on.
    • 2
      Slowly (and we mean slowly) fill the tray with more juice until it’s almost full.
    • 3
      Through the little holes, carefully place the sage leaves so that only the stem is submerged. This makes it look like an orange - cute! Place them in the freezer until they’re solid.
    • 4
      When you’re ready to unveil your masterpiece, add Aperol and soda water to a glass, then drop in your mini orange bomb.
    • 5
      When serving, top with prosecco and enjoy!

It’s that time of the year again. Everyone’s IG Stories start with the plane wing… then they’re in an idyllic beachside town… there’s pasta and wine etc etc. Meanwhile, we’re over here with bank accounts literally CRYING. But that’s ok, there’s always next hyear. In the meantime, here’s a little Euro-themed bevvie that’ll transport you there (spiritually).

Mexico’s given us a lot: the inspo for your fave Guzzy burrito, Frida Kahlo exhibits and the TikTok birria taco trend. Then there’s Día de Muertos, or Day of the Dead (Thursday November 2 this year). And while we might not get the day off in Straya, we’re giving it our own nod with this festive cocktail.

If we had to pick one drink as an all-year-round classic, the spritz would be a top contender. The best part about a spritz? You can whip it up with stuff you likely already have on hand. The general rule of thumb is 3 parts prosecco/sparkling, 2 parts whichever liqueur and 1 part soda. To really make it sing? Pop a garnish on top for that added flair. Tasty, chic and simple, the world is your oyster! Ooh, Limoncello Spritz and oysters...
