Aperol Spritz -Christmas Edition
Aperol Spritz! Who doesn't love it in summer? The bright red cocktail radiates joie de vivre and is a lively aperitif, in the evening at sunset on the terrace or in the bar with friends. But a spritzed Aperol also cuts a fine figure in winter.

Aperol Spritz tastes particularly delicious when combined with citrus fruits and mulled wine spices. The blog 23qm Stil has a fantastic recipe for blood orange syrup with Aperol. We would like to recommend this syrup in a slightly different form for a Christmas aperitif this year.
