Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients: To kick off your Aperol Spritz journey, you'll need a few key ingredients. Head to your nearest East of England Co-op and grab a bottle of Aperol, Co-op Irresistible Prosecco, and some Co-op Soda for £20. These delightful ingredients will form the basis of your championship-worthy cocktail.

Step 2: The Perfect Pour: Now that you have your ingredients, it's time to start mixing. Fill a large wine glass with ice cubes to keep your Aperol Spritz chilled and refreshing.

Step 3: Add the Aperol: It's time to add a touch of orange brilliance to your Aperol Spritz. Pour in 2 parts Aperol, the vibrant Italian aperitif that gives this cocktail its distinct flavour. The bittersweet taste of Aperol adds depth and complexity, perfectly complementing the fruity notes of the Prosecco.

Step 4: Fizz it Up: To bring some effervescence to your drink, top it off with a splash of Co-op Soda. This addition adds a delightful sparkle, making your Aperol Spritz even more refreshing and invigorating. Feel free to adjust the amount of soda to suit your taste preferences.

Step 5: Give it a Stir and Garnish: Take a cocktail stirrer or a long spoon and give your Aperol Spritz a gentle stir. This will ensure all the flavours meld together beautifully. To add a touch of Wimbledon elegance, garnish your cocktail with a slice of fresh orange or a zesty twist. The vibrant citrus garnish not only looks delightful but also adds an extra burst of flavour.

Step 6: Toast to Wimbledon! With your Aperol Spritz in hand, it's time to raise your glass and toast to Wimbledon! Sip on this delightful concoction while cheering on your favourite players or enjoying a relaxing moment in the sunshine.
