Crafted with Care — Built to Elevate

Every event deserves a team as professional as the experience you’ve designed.

Francesca DeFranchis, Founder FS Event Staffing

Great events fall apart for one reason more than any other: the staffing wasn’t right.

Maybe the team was undertrained. Maybe they showed up late—or didn’t show up at all. Maybe they weren’t briefed on the client’s expectations, or the headcount shifted and no one was prepared.

That’s why FS Event Staffing was created. To be the partner event professionals can count on.

We staff with intention—matching the right team to the right event—and we lead with clarity, courtesy, and professionalism from first quote to final breakdown.

Whether you’re planning a high-profile gala, an intimate wedding, or a fast-paced brand activation, you deserve a team that enhances your reputation—not one that puts it at risk.

Authentic Aperol Spritz Recipe: A Taste of La Dolce Vita

August 15, 20252 min read

The Aperol Spritz is a bright, bubbly Italian cocktail loved around the world. This authentic Aperol Spritz recipe blends Prosecco, Aperol, and soda water in the perfect 3:2:1 ratio, delivering a refreshing aperitivo you can enjoy anywhere. With its vibrant orange hue, bittersweet citrus flavor, and delicate fizz, the Aperol Spritz isn’t just a drink—it’s an experience rooted in Italian culture.

Born in the Veneto region and now a staple from Milan rooftops to Sicilian beaches, the Spritz is all about savoring the moment, sharing conversation, and enjoying the la dolce vita lifestyle.


Aperol Spritz Ingredients (per glass)

  • 3 oz quality Prosecco (Brut or Extra Dry — look for DOC-labeled Prosecco from Italy for authentic flavor and a crisp, fruity balance)

  • 2 oz Aperol

  • 1 oz soda water

  • Orange slice for garnish (blood orange for an elegant twist)


How to Make an Aperol Spritz

  1. Fill a large wine glass or balloon glass generously with ice.

  2. Pour in the Prosecco first to preserve its crisp bubbles.

  3. Add Aperol, then top with soda water.

  4. Gently stir to combine without losing the fizz.

  5. Garnish with a fresh orange slice. For extra flair, rim the glass with orange zest or add a sprig of rosemary.


Pro Tip from Our Bartenders

“The Aperol Spritz is about balance and authenticity. We build it right in the glass, using a well-made Prosecco to keep the bubbles crisp and the flavor true. It’s like vacation… in a glass.”


Aperol Spritz Garnish Ideas & Serving Tips

  • Classic garnish: Orange slice (blood orange for a richer color)

  • Herbal twist: Fresh rosemary or thyme sprig

  • Citrus swap: Grapefruit slice for a sharper edge

  • Pair with Italian antipasti like marinated olives, burrata, bruschetta, or prosciutto-wrapped melon.

  • For events, set up a DIY Aperol Spritz station so guests can customize their garnish.

Hosting a crowd? Pre-chill and combine the Prosecco and Aperol in a pitcher just before serving. Pour into ice-filled glasses, then top each glass with soda water to keep the bubbles fresh.


Aperol Spritz FAQ

What is the ratio for an Aperol Spritz?
The traditional recipe uses 3 parts Prosecco, 2 parts Aperol, and 1 part soda water.

Can I make an Aperol Spritz without Prosecco?
Yes, but choose another dry sparkling wine—avoid overly sweet options, which can overpower the drink.

What does an Aperol Spritz taste like?
It’s light, citrusy, and slightly bitter, balanced by Prosecco’s subtle fruitiness and the effervescence of soda water.


The Aperol Spritz is more than just a summer cocktail—it’s an invitation to slow down, share good company, and celebrate life’s simple pleasures.
