Ingredients in Low Calorie Aperol Spritz Cocktails
Make a cocktail aperol spritz with your favorite Prosecco or champagne. But as this is an Italian cocktail, Prosecco is the traditional sparkling wine to use.
Low Calorie Tips to Making an Aperol Cocktail:
- Add More Soda Water: No one wants a small cocktail! So top off this recipe for spritz with extra soda water so you can sip longer.
- Split the Drink: I took the 350 calorie beverage and split it into two glasses, then topped with soda water. This way you can share it, and save calories.
- Add Lots of Ice: Ice (like soda water) is zero calories, and it helps fill up the glass. So add extra ice and get the illusion of a very large cocktail.
