A few things say Italy as loud as aperitivo do, the traditional drink that takes place at the end of the workday as a kind of warm up to dinner, typically sipped with light snacks.
The most famous drink for the aperitivo is the Aperol Spritz, also known as "summer in a glass", due to its vibrant orange hue and its very slightly bitter taste with a sweet hint of orange and a light tang of herbs. Originated in Veneto, it is made by Prosecco, which gives it a sparkling touch, Aperol for the bitter and Soda water to refresh. It is usually served over ice in a lowball glassand garnished with a slice of orange, or sometimes a green olive and we suggest to drink with a great cheese selection.
