We’ve officially entered spritz season—and rosé season—with the arrival of summer.
And rosé brand The Pale has created a sweet, crisp sip that combines the two warm-weather drinks into one cocktail. The drink offers what the brand calls “instant occasion” energy.
Bridget Albert, host of the Served Up podcast, who works with Southern Glazers Wine & Spirits which created The Pale Rosé Spritz, says it’s a must-try for fans of the famed Aperol Spritz.
“Made with Aperol, raspberry syrup, fresh lemon juice, and The Pale Rosé, it’s bright, citrusy, and layered with a subtle berry finish,” Albert says.
She continues: “It’s the kind of easy, refreshing cocktail made for summer entertaining.”
The Pale shared the batch recipe with Appetito for readers to make at home for their own gatherings.
Ingredients
8 oz. 8 The Pale Rosé
2 oz. 2 Aperol
1 oz. 1 raspberry syrup
1 oz. 1 fresh lemon juice
2-4 oz. 2-4 chilled sparkling water (to finish)
Directions
- Add the rosé, Aperol, raspberry syrup, and lemon juice to a pitcher and stir well.
- Chill until ready to serve.
- When serving, pour over ice and top each glass with chilled sparkling water to add the fizz.
- To garnish:
- Lemon peel + fresh raspberries
Notes
- If you want it closer to a bottled/soda-siphon texture, use less sparkling water for a more concentrated spritz, or more for a lighter, longer drink.
