Italian Inspired Libations

While it might have been the summer of Aperol Spritz, we’re declaring this the Amalfi Coast Autumn. Add these four Italian inspired libations to your cocktail rotation. Saluti!

Aperol Spritz

Pie Bar at Cane River Pecan Company

It’s everyone’s favorite orange-hued spritz. The Italian bitter apéritif found its way to menus everywhere and had everyone trying to perfect the recipe at home. We recommend trying this version from Pie Bar with a side of rosemary roasted pecans.

Limoncello

Marcello’s Lafayette

This refreshing cocktail is the second-most popular liqueur in Italy. Second only to, you guessed it, aperol. Limoncello is traditionally served chilled as an after-dinner drink. This house-made limoncello at Marcello’s is a perfect way to end the night or try it as a spritzer.

Frozen Aperol Spritz

Pop’s Poboys

Why have one aperol when you can have two? Afterall, it’s Italy’s most popular liqueur for a reason. This twist on the classic we’ll soon be your favorite. The Frozen Aperol Spritz has the classic ingredients list – Aperol, prosecco and orange, but with that delicious daiquiri treatment.

Italian Prosecco

Palmyre

Not all bubbles are created equally, but when it comes to prosecco, the Italian varieties hold their own in any category. On Palmyre’s extensive wine and cocktail list, you’ll find beautiful sparkling beverages like Terriero Treviso Brut NV, Prosecco, Italy.
