A Campari-style spritz uses a red bitter that is stronger and less sweet than bitter orange aperitivo. Copying the 60 ml Aperol-style pour makes a harsh glass. Forty-five millilitres is the useful measure. Go to 60 ml only if you already know you want it stern.
The garnish is still orange. The drink is a spritz, so prosecco and soda stay in the build. A Negroni is a different cocktail, with gin and vermouth and no soda.

Questions people ask
How is a Campari-style spritz different from an Aperol-style spritz?
Red bitter is drier, more bitter, and usually higher in alcohol than bitter orange aperitivo. Use a little less of it: 45 ml instead of 60 ml, with the same prosecco and soda.
