It wasn't as artificially sweet as some of the other options and had plenty of flavour even when in a long drink with the lemonade mixer. Content on this site is not intended to substitute for advice given by medical practitioner, pharmacist, or other licensed health-care professional.

Invented in Italy in 1919, the original Aperol is an alcoholic aperitif made with citrus, bitter roots and herby flavours.

It had definite strong orange notes and wasn't sweet as the Aldi version but it was too bitter for some of the tasters.A 200-year recipe, when it was first invited it was created to be drunk for pleasure, but also health. I guess you'd put it being nearer Campari than Aperol, which, if like me, you like a bitter drink, is no bad thing. Clare Gibson, Marketing Director at ICB, commented: “This zesty and bright orange aperitif is the perfect serve for summer celebrations. Perhaps a tad sweeter and less complex than the leading brand but, enjoyed over ice in the sunshine, it compares more than favourably and will save you almost a tenner. The Spritz is one of the best-selling cocktails globally, which is why we wanted to roll out widely across the UK so everyone can have a taste.

Intercontinental Brands’ main focus is on producing lower-ABV, value alternatives to major international brands. The vibrant natural colour and zesty aromas lead to intense orange flavours and a bittersweet herbal finish". For a refreshing summer drink, serve equal parts of Bella Apertini and prosecco with a splash of soda and loads of ice. The new distribution deals follow the brand’s recent national listing with UK supermarket Morrisons.

It wasn't sickly but was packed with flavour and was the one my friends decided was most like the genuine Pimm's. Not only does it taste wonderful but it is also an affordable alternative to one of the nation’s most loved aperitivos.

Intercontinental Brands recently tapped into the trend for Passion Fruit Martinis with the release of its Apollo liqueur. Aperol is a slightly bitter, refreshing drink, it hails from Italy and if it's good enough to be drunk by Italians in their blisteringly hot summers, it's good enough for me.

Bella Apertini is a classic aperitivo crafted with bitter, sweet orange and delicate herbal flavours.
