Classic Series: Aperitivo Hour! Cocktails, Cheese, and more!—$75

Aperitivo comes from the Latin word aperire, meaning “to open.” Historically, an aperitivo was an alcoholic beverage consumed before dinner to whet your appetite. Today, it’s a daily ritual that embodies la dolce vita.

Typically, aperitivo hour is defined by vermouth and other spirits for simple cocktails like the Negroni (Campari, sweet vermouth, and gin), Americano (Campari, sweet vermouth, and soda), and the Spritz (Aperol or another amari with Prosecco and soda).

It is also about light snacking: olives, cheese, and chips while you enjoy your cocktail.

At this class, our wine buyer, Colin, will lead you through the steps to make a beautifully balanced aperitif while you enjoy the cheese, olives, and other unique Formaggio Kitchen accoutrements and snacks.

You will leave this class exctied for spring, warmer weather, and with new skills for creating your own aperitivo hour at home!
