Aperol gets its name from the fact that it is an apéritif — a drink typically consumed before a meal as a way to get ready to eat. Its main ingredients are rhubarb, cinchona (a tree bark), and vegetal gentian root. The end result is a citrusy-tasting alcohol with a bittersweet edge. The other defining difference you'll notice when making this substitution is that your drink will now be bright orange, in contrast to the deep ruby hues of Campari.
When you substitute Aperol for Campari, you are actually making a whole new drink called a Contessa. Here's how to make it: You'll need Aperol, gin, and vermouth. Measure out an ounce of each into a glass with some ice. For the garnish, slice a few inches of orange or lemon peel, twisting it a bit before putting it in the glass.
