It comes from aperitif, the French term for before dinner, ‘Apéro,’ which the two brothers Luigi and Silvio Barbieri founded in 1912 as heirs to their father’s liquor company. Aperol is that perfect combination of flavor and fizz enjoyed before meals.
The cocktail was discovered when the two brothers Luigi and Silvio inherited their father’s company and started making bright orange liqueur which was soothing in Padua, Italy in 1919. They made a lighter alcoholic drink that can be consumed before a meal to stimulate hunger. The infusion of oranges, herbs, and roots makes the flavor of this drink bitter-sweet making it a popular dish in Italy. The origin of the drink can be tracked from the early 19th century. The Italian drinks were mostly enjoyed by the Australian soldiers. What made the drink appealing to drink was the lightness and the soothing orange color. It was then drunk as a perfect refreshment during a hot, summer afternoon. The drink mostly gained popularity during the 1980s and 1990s when the Australian people got together during the late afternoons.
