This Summery Drink May Be the Easiest Cocktail You’ve Ever Made

I love cocktails, but I rarely make them at home. My poor mixology skills mean that most of the drinks I make come out watery and weak, and I’m left wishing I’d just opened a bottle of wine instead. But there’s one cocktail I always make an exception for. It’s called the Spaghett, and it’s almost like an Aperol Spritz for a really, really lazy beer lover. Basically, all you have to do is open a Miller High Life, take a big swig, and then top it off with some Aperol. I like to add a slice of lemon, but you can skip that step if you don’t feel like getting a cutting board out.

If you haven’t ever seen the Spaghett on a menu, you’re not alone. It was born into the cocktail world in 2016 at Wet City Brewing in Baltimore, Maryland, where it was invented by a bartender named Reed Cahill. Since then, it’s made its rounds on the internet and has gained a cult following amongst the Aperol-loving crowd, but you probably won’t see it on a ton of drink menus.

Of course, part of the appeal is the fact that this cocktail is just so easy to make. You don’t even have to use a clean glass, after all—just pour the Aperol straight into the bottle of beer. There’s no measuring or mixing, which is ideal for the times when you’re trying to make a drink quickly. Plus, it doesn’t even call for specialized ingredients you have to go out and buy just to make this cocktail specifically; you probably already have everything you need in your fridge and bar cart. It’s also easy to take on the go, since it doesn’t require a shaker or ice.
