Our gorgeous harvest moon party has us full of entertaining inspiration, and although we’ve covered the party itself, the music, and the menu, we couldn’t forget the cocktails. They’re fun, easy to make, and can totally set the tone for a party. For our end-of-summer inspired evening, we went with a refreshing classic: the Aperol Spritz. Its fun coral color recalls the big bright moon that graced the evening, and unexpected citrus flavor make it one of our favorites.

Ingredients:

Prosecco, chilled

Aperol

Sparkling water, chilled

Ice

Orange slice (for garnish)

Start with ice in the glass, then add 3 parts Prosecco – 2 parts Aperol. Top with a splash of sparkling water, and finish with an orange slice on top.
