How to make it
- Stir the Aperol, orange juice, simple syrup and water together, then add the prosecco slowly so it doesn't foam over.
- Pour into the slushie machine and run its alcoholic preset (the batch card shows which one) until the slush is ready; the bubbles fade as it churns.
- Serve in wine glasses with an orange slice.
About the Aperol Spritz Slush
Aperol was created by the Barbieri brothers in Padua in 1919. It became a worldwide aperitivo after Campari bought the brand in 2003 and promoted the Aperol Spritz.

- No Orange Juice? Use Orange (Squeeze fresh: 1 orange gives about 70 ml)
- No Orange Juice? Use Blood Orange Juice (Berry-like and deep red)
- No Simple Syrup? Use Rich Simple Syrup (More concentrated, so use less)
- No Simple Syrup? Use Sugar (1 tsp sugar is about 7.5 ml syrup; stir until dissolved)
