Aperol
Appearance
Aperol is an Italian aperitif originally produced by the Barbieri company, based in Padua. Aperol is now produced by the Campari company. While Aperol was originally created in 1919, it did not become successful until after World War II[1]. Its ingredients are, among others, bitter orange, gentian, rhubarb, and cinchona.
Although it looks, tastes, and smells much like Campari, it has a higher sugar content. [citation needed], Aperol has an alcohol content of 11% - a little less than half of Campari. Campari is also slightly darker in color.
Aperol is the main ingredient in Spritz.
