Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups Aperol (475 mL)
  • 1 cup orange juice (236 mL)
  • 1 cup lemonade (236 mL)
  • 2 bottles Prosecco (750 mL each, chilled)

To Serve

  • Orange slices

Instructions

  1. Mix: In a spouted bowl or a large pitcher, combine the Aperol, orange juice, and lemonade. Stir gently until all the ingredients are well incorporated to create a balanced and flavorful base.
  2. Freeze: Pour the mixture evenly into popsicle molds. Secure the mold lids and insert the popsicle sticks. Place the molds in the freezer and freeze until completely solid, which typically takes about 6 to 8 hours or overnight for best results.
  3. Serve: When ready to enjoy, briefly run the popsicle molds under warm water to loosen the popsicles. Carefully remove each popsicle and place it into a wine glass. Pour chilled Prosecco over the popsicle for a fizzy finish. Garnish each glass with a fresh slice of orange and serve immediately for the best flavor and presentation.

Notes

  • Ensure the Prosecco is thoroughly chilled before serving to enhance the refreshing experience.
  • Use quality popsicle molds with tight-fitting lids to prevent spills during freezing.
  • Running the mold briefly under warm water helps release the popsicles without melting them too much.
  • For a less sweet variation, adjust the lemonade quantity or try using a less sugary citrus soda.
  • This recipe is perfect for adult-friendly parties due to its alcohol content; keep away from children.
