Check Out This Spin on the Aperol Spritz!

Summer isn’t over just yet. Below, you’ll find a fun take on one of the season’s staple cocktails from Uptown Sports Club in Austin, Texas!

Uptown Sports Club has roots that date back to 1949 when it opened as a neighborhood spot for locals in East Austin to drink, bet, watch sports games, and hold court. The restaurant has found its second life thanks to Aaron Franklin and a handful of friends united by their deep love for Austin. This summer, they launched a new brunch menu and cocktails made to sip alongside southern staples like steak & eggs and shrimp & grits as well as their unique peaches & cream pancakes.

Desert Sunrise has two types of vodka along with classic Aperol and St. Germain…at Uptown, diners are encouraged to stay a while!
