Instructions

The Twilight Pepper Spritz is a sophisticated, low-alcohol cocktail designed to enhance and complement the unique flavor profile of Dr. Pepper. This refreshing spritz is perfect for a relaxed afternoon or a casual evening with friends. Its complexity comes from the subtle herbal notes and citrus zest which elevate the familiar soda to a chic and enjoyable libation. Serve this in a highball glass to maintain its fizzy character and to allow the aromas to mingle perfectly with each sip. Ingredients: - 1 oz Aperol - 4 oz Dr. Pepper - 2 oz Club Soda - 1/2 oz Fresh Lemon Juice - 1/4 oz Simple Syrup (optional, depending on sweetness preference) - Garnish: Lemon Wheel or Orange Twist - Ice Instructions: 1. Fill a highball glass with ice to chill. 2. Add the Aperol and fresh lemon juice to the glass. 3. If preferred, add the simple syrup to sweeten the mix slightly. 4. Gently pour in the Dr. Pepper, allowing it to mix with the Aperol and lemon juice. 5. Top with club soda to add the desired effervescence. 6. Stir the mixture lightly to combine all the flavors without reducing the carbonation. 7. Garnish with a lemon wheel or an orange twist to bring forward the citrus notes. 8. Serve immediately and enjoy the layered flavors of this unique cocktail experience. The Twilight Pepper Spritz is a low-alcohol option where the Aperol provides a hint of bitterness and herbal quality that perfectly complements the 23 flavors of Dr. Pepper, while the lemon juice's acidity balances the sweetness. The club soda ensures that the drink stays crisp and light. It's a cocktail that will surprise and delight, making it a memorable addition to any mixologist's repertoire.
