What to drink at AperiTWeat – part 2

Hey, are you liking these pages? May I recommend you subscribe to our RSS feed? It will help you stay in touch with our updates!

So you know what you’re going to get Laura (@lauradesign) at AperiTWeat tonight and rest assured those are all very nice drinks! We had a Menabrea yesterday when we went to Al Volo for a briefing, and if you can say no to good beer, well, you’re strange. Spritz is probably “The Drink” to have at a proper Italian Aperitivo and if you’re joining us make sure you try one (or two). Amaretto and Averna are two gorgeous drinks you can have towards the end of the evening, after the lovely (free!) Italian Food will have delighted you.

But what if you want to buy me (@gioias) a drink? All the above would do, but if you want to be 100% sure I suggest you try with a Prosecco or a Martini Bianco.

Prosecco

Prosecco is a crisp sparkling white wine with a slightly bitter aftertaste. In fact, Prosecco grapes are used to make two types of sparkling wine. They can be used to make spumante, a dry sparkling wine, or frizzante wines, which are semi-sparkling. The Frizzante variety is often enjoyed in traditional Italian Aperitivo.

Martini Bianco

Often served with ice and a slice of lemon, Martini Bianco (White Martini) is technically a vermouth (AKA vermut), which in turn is a sweet, aromatic wine, in between 16% and 21% ABV. Not to be confused with the 007 cocktail. You can have this one stirred, if you like.

(If you want to buy Matteo -@palmamod- a drink, just go for a Spritz. He won’t say no)
