RUBY RED SPRITZ
A mashup of an Aperol spritz and a grapefruit Mimosa, this gently bitter and refreshing aperitivo would be a hit at any holiday brunch. If you can find organic grapefruit, these typically smaller fruits are more ideal for garnish.
1 oz Aperol
2 oz strained fresh ruby red grapefruit juice, chilled
3 oz Prosecco, chilled
Ruby red grapefruit wedge
Pour Aperol and grapefruit juice into a chilled red wine glass filled three-quarters with ice. Stir 10 seconds. Top with Prosecco, pouring slowly. Stir once. Garnish with grapefruit wedge. Serve immediately.
