About this deal

Goat cheese, fresh mozzarella, or burrata with crusty bread (perhaps with olive oil and/or good jam) Skardy lamented that "spritz used to be cheap, [and] now it's a luxury for yuppies". But nothing could stop the rise of Aperol, a sort of orange tidal wave that, according to food expert Eleonora Cozzella, was powered by the easy appeal of its colour and taste. "It has a chromatic coherence: it's the colour of the summer evening. You say Aperol Spritz, and you already see yourself on a terrace at sunset overlooking the Adriatic Sea," she explained. (It's such a distinctive hue that Pasini is creating a pantone colour chart for beginner mixologists who want to get the right tone). c) Enter 8-digit Unique Code and time stamp printed on Promotional 70cl Aperol Spritz bottles (for example 72371921) We put the cheaper alternatives from M&S, Asda, Lidl and Aldi to the test against the real deal. One of them wasn't worth the money but one supermarket apéritif was just as tasty as the original. Here's how we got on... Aperol Serve it with light Italian or Mediterranean-style nibbles. I mentioned my favorite burrata platter earlier, but antipasto skewers, a simple tomato bruschetta, or a plate of whipped feta with a side of pita chips are all good ideas! If you want to serve a little something sweet and salty, try melons wrapped in prosciutto.

Like most of the own brands we found, Aperol has a strength of 11%. It was the recognisable apéritif I'd tasted many times before - reddish-orange in colour and bitter, sweet and fruity in taste. It had an almost coppery flavour, but enjoyed in my sunny garden, it was undeniably refreshing. It tasted like summer and, in all honesty, I was doubtful any of the others would compare. Asda Apertini I suppose it's complicated, like everything involving fine taste in Italy seems to be. However, 85% of Italians agree on one thing: they can't give up the habit of aperitivo at least once a month.It's a hymn to slowness," said Cozzella. "The desire to prolong the moment before the dinner. It's an excuse to drink, nibble and stay together a little longer before going home."

Want to know how to make an Aperol Spritz? You're in the right place, as here we show you how to recreate the traditional Aperol Spritz recipe at home with our easy-to-follow guide and video tutorial. It’s just a splash, but don’t be tempted to skimp on the soda in your Aperol Spritz as it works wonders for the finished drink.“By adding soda water, we replace the carbonation that gets lost whilst pouring Prosecco and stirring the drink. While Prosecco and soda water is the classic mix, there are plenty of other ways to enjoy Aperol. We spoke to different mixologists to find their perfect alternative Aperol Spritz recipe: Promotion exclusion: The promotion excludes employees of the Promoter (Campari UK Limited) and their immediate families; any agencies involved with the promotion; and anyone else professionally connected with the promotion.The Aperol flavours were all there, but this one was sweeter and fruitier. A good option if you're on the fence about Aperol and find the bitterness a little overpowering. Personally, I like the sharpness of Aperol, so I preferred the original, but Apertini is a tasty alternative - and great value for money. M&S Aperitivo
