Aperol Spritz Doughnuts Are Sydney's New OTT Boozy Summer Snack

Sydney's collective Aperol spritz intake is at its annual peak right now, with the orange summer classic having a serious moment at bars across the city.

But here's some good news for anyone keen to break free from tradition — Aperol spritz doughnuts have arrived in town, reimagining those classic cocktail flavours in delicious edible form.

The boozy baked goods come courtesy of Shortstop Donuts and you can get your mitts on them right now for just $6 a pop, at the pop-up Club Aperol Gardens at Untied in Barangaroo, The Winery in Surry Hills and Cockle Bay Wharf's Bungalow 8.

Each ball of doughy goodness is infused with Shortstop's house-made Aperol Spritz gel, topped with candied orange peel and a light orange glaze, and served with an Aperol-filled pipette for an extra dose of that fruity bitterness.

Of course, you can match your doughnut with a few classic liquid spritzes or even a tequila-infused Aperol Iced Tea, while enjoying Club Aperol's summery lineup of canapes, ping pong and big-screen tennis action. The pop-up bars will be serving spritzes for $10 at the Winery and $12 at Untied and Bungalow 8).

The Aperol spritz doughnuts are available until February 28 at Club Aperol Gardens at The Winery (285A Crown St, Surry Hills), Untied (400 Barangaroo Avenue, Barangaroo) and Bungalow 8 (3 Lime St, Sydney).
