Very tasty! Bourbon, bitters, and ginger beer make for a broad range of flavors beyond the fruit, though not so "whiskey" to be an after dinner drink, to my taste. Richer than a Courtside or other strawberry smashes I've had. Perfect for a warmer day in the sunshine.

Notes: Aperol is one of the more sweet bitters. The 3:2:1 can be a little cloying depending on the prosecco, but is overall a refreshing drink. More recent versions seem to be 2:2+(splash soda), but I go the opposite way and cut it with more soda to thin out the syrupy notes and mouthfeel. Begs to be updated with a different aperitivo and curated prosecco.
