Aperol Spritz in Bologna, Italy

Recently, Vicky took a 10-day trip to Bologna, Italy.  Over the next few weeks she would like to share her experience with you!  These blogs are direct from her journal.

At restaurant 'Olivio':  Our bartender makes it with Aperol, Spumante and a splash of soda water on the rocks with an orange garnish.  It is most delicious and matches the "red" city with the bright orange hue.  The spumante made from the local pignoletto grape.  This is light and refreshing - Andrea (my new 'boy'friend) tells me it is important to cut the flavor of the mortadella or prosciutto that is eaten at almost every meal.
