You can now get an Aperol Spritz Christmas jumper

It is our most favourite summertime tipple.

To be fair, in our opinion, there’s never a bad time for this truly classic Italian aperitivo.

And now we can show off our love for the Aperol Spritz come Christmas time too.

Sold on Etsy by the official Aperol Spritz retailer, the very festive-looking orange, black and white jumper is described as:

“An effortlessly stylish, Italian-inspired take on the much-loved British Christmas jumper, the 2021 Merry Spritzmas Jumper encourages friends to get together.

“This year’s design mixes an on-trend stitch with geometric elements borrowed from Aperol’s spiritual home of Venice, along with the Art Deco style that shaped Aperol’s appearance when it launched in 1919.

“These are combined with clever references to the drink itself, including the distinctive silhouette of the Aperol bottle and glass, Venetian fans transformed into the iconic orange slice garnish, and an Art Deco ‘ice cube’ pattern.”

And if you have €53 to part with for this festive Christmas jumper, you can rest assured your money will be going to a worthwhile cause.

“The limited-edition piece is knitted with yarn made from 100 per cent Better Cotton Initiative cotton – a group committed to promoting better global standards in cotton farming and practice, with the proceeds of every sale going to hospitality charity The Drinks Trust UK,” the Etsy description reads.

The jumper also comes loaded with its very own Christmas present: each purchase offers the wearer a complementary pair of Aperol Spritz’s to enjoy during December at The Alchemist bars nationwide.”
