The worst Spritz I ever had was Venice. Naturally being the quintessential cocktail of Venice, I must enjoy one while eating cicchetti by the canals. Unfortunately all of Venice is a tourist trap (It’s still beautiful and I loved being there though) and every spritz I ordered tasted just pretty bad. I had never actually had a spritz before this trip and before I go on vacation I like to do a little research on any cool bars to seek out or any regional spirts or cocktails to try. So I got multiple spritz’s and they all sucked.

Determined not to let that ruin it for me I googled the recipe when I got home and found the official recipe off Aperol’s website is really good. The spritz is a great little drink (If made well), and garnished with an orange slice or Spanish olive, it makes a nice brunch cocktail.
