Aperol is an Italian bitter aperitif popularly used in cocktails, especially in the Aperol Spritz. The drink was first created in 1919 in Padua, Italy, by the Barbieri brothers, Luigi and Silvio Barbieri. The drink quickly became a favorite in Italy and soon expanded to other European countries. One of the reasons for Aperol's popularity is its low alcohol content, which makes it serve as a perfect aperitif, meaning it stimulates the appetite before dinner. Aperol is made with a blend of bitter and sweet oranges, herbs, and roots, including gentian, rhubarb, and cinchona. It has a unique bitter-sweet taste that blends well with other spirits, and it is also less bitter, making it a great starting point in cocktails or mixed drinks.Aperol Floats Recipes
