Aperol Spritz
Or Spritz Veneziano; it is come from Italy like the Aperol itself and it is wine based cocktail. Spritz was created in 1800 and we know that Aperol created in 1919, so that means Aperol Spritz made after that years. We don't have actual date but we know that Aperol Spritz invented in 1950s.
Annnddd, Campari Group made ready-to-drink Aperoş Spritz in 2011.
