Aperol Spritz : Digital Illustration

Aperol Spritz Cocktail Illustration by Michigan artist - Cheryl Oz

This is the newest of my illustrated cocktails. This is also the first cocktail that I've drawn digitally in Procreate. Prior to this illustration my other cocktails were done in traditional watercolor. I first tried an Aperol Spritz late last Summer while visiting Chicago. My husband and I went to Eataly. I loved Eataly! I could have literally spent hours there shopping, eating, drinking... it was the most fun place in Chicago for me. If you love Italy and Italian food it's definitely a must place to visit. It was my favorite place to go in Chicago. I went back twice! I pointed out the cocktail to our waitress and she nodded, arriving back to the table with this beautiful, orange-hued bubbly cocktail. At my first sip, I knew this was going to be one of my favorite Summer cocktails! Since Eataly, is a marketplace too, I purchased a bottle of Aperol, saving it for this coming Summer which now is just around the corner! HOORAY! I can't wait to have friends over to enjoy an Aperol Spritz on the sunny patio.
