Ingredients - What You Need

Non-alcoholic Prosecco or a dry alcohol-free sparkling wine: I did a round up of the best non-alcoholic sparkling wines to help you with this! You can replace this with a sparkling grape juice if you wish.
A non-alcoholic 'Aperol' replacement: my personal favorites are the Lyre's Italian Spritz and the Free Spirits Milan. I have also suggested a replacement below using everyday ingredients for those who prefer not to purchase a zero-proof spirit, but I must warn you it is quite difficult to replicate that signature spritz taste so I would recommend the alcohol-free spirit if you can.

Expert Tips and Tricks

To make a batch mocktail: YES, you can make a batch non alcoholic Aperol spritz if you wish! Simply use the recipe card below to adjust the numbers of servings required. This will adjust the quantities of the ingredients so you know how much of each you need.
Then, add the alcohol-free wine, Aperol replacement and soda water to a pitcher. Don't add ice - this will dilute your mocktail. Instead, serve over ice in spritz glasses and garnish with sliced orange.

Chill your ingredients if you have time: there's nothing worse than a diluted spritz mocktail! I suggest chilling your ingredients (or at the very least, the non-alcoholic sparkling wine) prior to use to get the cold, crisp spritz we all know and love.

Experiment with variations: so, we all know the original spritz is delicious, but why not try these easy variations for something different?
- Use non-alcoholic Rosé instead of regular sparkling wine for a floral twist.
- For a tropical twist, replace the soda water with pineapple juice and garnish with some fresh pineapple.
- Slice 3 strawberries and muddle them (gently and carefully!) in the bottom of your glass before building the drink, then garnish with fresh strawberries - perfection!
