03History

Aperol was bottled in Padua in 1919; the spritz template — wine lengthened with soda — goes back to Austrian occupation of the Veneto.

1950s recipe cards fixed the modern pour; by the 2010s it was IBA-listed and omnipresent from Venice to every rooftop on earth.

Origin contested — the entry keeps verified record and received legend distinct.
