Aperol Spritz: Ingredients and Cost

What you need

The classic Aperol Spritz recipe is 3-2-1: three parts Prosecco, two parts Aperol, one part sparkling water or soda. In practice that's about 90ml Prosecco, 60ml Aperol, and 30ml soda per glass, served over ice in a large wine glass with a slice of orange.

How much Aperol per bottle

A standard 700ml bottle of Aperol contains enough for approximately 11 Aperol Spritzes (at 60ml per drink). Aperol is widely available and typically costs between £10–£16 per 700ml bottle in the UK depending on the retailer.

Prosecco cost

You'll use roughly a third of a standard 750ml Prosecco bottle per 3-drink round. A decent Prosecco Doc ranges from £8–£12 per bottle, making it approximately £3 per Spritz for the Prosecco component.

Cost per glass

Combining Aperol and Prosecco, an Aperol Spritz at home costs roughly £2.50–£4 per glass depending on which retailers you buy from. Compare that to £12–£16 in a bar or restaurant.
