Add the Aperol to a pan and reduce over a low heat until it has a syrupy consistency – this will remove the alcohol from the liquid.
Remove from the heat and allow to cool before returning to a clean bottle.
Dissolve the malic acid in the water and stir thoroughly.
Add to a dripper bottle.
To assemble the mocktail, add 15ml of the reduced Aperol to a glass with ice.
