700 ml of Aperol

4 g of malic acid

Method:

Add the Aperol to a pan and reduce over a low heat until it has a syrupy consistency – this will remove the alcohol from the liquid.

Remove from the heat and allow to cool before returning to a clean bottle.

Dissolve the malic acid in the water and stir thoroughly.

Add to a dripper bottle.

To assemble the mocktail, add 15ml of the reduced Aperol to a glass with ice.
