Make a Limoncello Cocktail

Italians swear by a shot glass of ice-cold limoncello after a meal. But did you know you can also drink limoncello before your meal? Say hello to Limoncello Tonic!

Limoncello, the famous Italian lemon liqueur, is also delicious as an aperitif. For example, try making a real Italian Limoncello & Tonic instead of a Gin and Tonic.

Make it yourself

It’s very simple:

• Fill a Copa glass with ice cubes

• Add 45 ml of FIORITO limoncello

• Top up with approximately 125 ml of tonic

• Garnish with a basil leaf and, optionally, lemon peel.

Bartender’s tip

First, carefully flatten the basil sprig between your palms. This releases the basil’s aroma and flavor even better.
