Notes about Recipes in this book

  • The Negroni fizz cocktail

    • TrishaCP on October 24, 2020

      I can’t say that I liked this better than a regular Negroni, but this was nice for a change. Fizzy and lighter.

  • Red kiss

    • TrishaCP on August 10, 2020

      Deliciously boozy with full-on flavor from the amaros. (You definitely get the Fernet on the palate). This might not be for everyone, but it is definitely to my taste.

  • Bicicletta

    • TrishaCP on August 10, 2020

      Classic for a reason. My favorite will always be the Negroni Sbagliato, but this is a great option if you don’t have sparkling wine on hand/open.

With chapters on twelve major cities along the Italian Riviera (including San Remo, Genova, Portofino, and Santa Margarita), each will feature unique cocktail recipes as well as regional appetizers traditionally served with cocktails, often as a beachside ritual. You’ll also find sidebars offering detailed info about local distilleries, celebrity barmen, cultural idiosyncrasies of bar life, famous hotels, and much more.
