Which Prosecco for Aperol? Tips for the perfect Spritz
The Aperol Spritz is a classic that's a must-have at any summer party, evening with friends, and—let's be honest—even in the colder months. But not every Prosecco is equally suited for this popular drink. Today, we answer the question: Which Prosecco pairs best with Aperol? And why our "Foss Marai Brut Marai de Marai" is the perfect choice for your Spritz creations.
The ideal Prosecco for Aperol Spritz: What should you look for?
Choosing the right Prosecco makes the difference between a good and a great Aperol Spritz. Here are the most important criteria:
-
Dry or Extra Dry:
A dry Prosecco (Brut or Extra Dry) perfectly balances the sweetness of Aperol. Proseccos that are too sweet can make the drink heavy and sticky. -
Fine Perlage:
A pleasant but not overpowering carbonation provides the refreshing fizz that makes the Spritz so special. -
Subtle Fruit Aromas:
Prosecco with light citrus or apple notes complements the bitter-sweet flavors of Aperol without overpowering them.
