You’ll need…

1 shot bourbon

Place 3-4 ice cubes in whiskey glasses, and pour your shot of bourbon in on top of it.

Next, add in your two shots of Aperol, followed by simple syrup.

To make simple syrup, simply heat 2 parts sugar to 1 part water over a medium heat in a pan. Once the mixture has thickened like a syrup and cooled down, it’s ready to go – pour it in on top of the bourbon and Aperol.

Using a peeler, peel off several twists of orange. Rub the peels around the rim of the glasses and place them on the rim for decoration.

Next, slice the orange into small pieces and squeeze in some juice and add a small slice to each glass.

Top off the witch’s brew with prosecco for extra hubble, bubble, toil and trouble and serve!
