Watermelon Aperol Spritz
This aperol spritz is a light, festive cocktail combining fresh cubed seedless watermelon with Aperol, Prosecco or sparkling wine, and a splash of watermelon sparkling water. Bright, gently bitter, and effervescent, this winter-friendly watermelon cocktail is finished with a fresh watermelon garnish for a crisp, refreshing twist on a seasonal drink.
