Chardonnay Aperol Spritz

Happy National Cocktail Day!

We’re celebrating with a fun and fresh take on a traditional Aperol Spritz that uses Kristof Chardonnay, fresh fruit, and flavored soda water for a drink that tastes a whole lot like summer!

Chardonnay Aperol Spritz

Here’s what you need:

• 3 oz Kristof Chardonnay

• 2 oz Aperol

• 1 oz soda water (for this recipe we used Spindrift Raspberry Lime)

• 2 tbsp fresh squeezed orange juice

• Sliced strawberries and oranges for garnish (optional but encouraged!)

Fill a wine (or cocktail) glass with ice and fruit (if using). Add Kristof Chardonnay, Aperol, soda water, and fresh orange juice. Stir. Garnish with an orange (or other citrus). And enjoy!

This drink is not only beautiful and easy to make, but also easy to remember how to make. It’s a 3:2:1 ratio – 3 parts chardonnay to 2 parts Aperol to 1 part soda water. You can make a few drinks, or even a pitcher for a summer gathering.
