APERITIVO (RIZZOLI)

Aperitivo’s tour of northern Italian bars and cafés yields refreshing cocktails which beautifully open the evening. Many are structured around vermouths and botanical-infused liqueurs which offer complex flavours, and awaken the palate without stunning it; the accompanying food features peppers stuffed with tuna, the legendary croquettes from Harry's Bar, polenta squares with baccala, as well as endless variations of crostini and focaccia. Whether planning a party or just having a friend over, Aperitivo lets you host in true Italian style.
