Famous Italian Drinks

Before we dig into the drinks in Italy, let’s learn a little more about the lingo associated with Italian cocktails.

What is Aperitivo?

Aperitivo is an inherent part of Italian culture.  This an opportunity to enjoy light snacks and drinks with friends after work. Think of it as a pre-dinner drink, usually occurring between 7 and 9 pm.

I loved learning all about Italian Aperitivos (pre-dinner drinks) prior to my trip to Italy. I could wait to participate in one for myself! The idea of per dinner cocktails is always a great idea to me! That’s why I loved trying these drinks in Italy, especially the famous Italian ones!

What is a Digestivo?

A digestivo is an alcoholic drink that is served after a meal.  Italians believe that a digestif aids in digestion and helps to eliminate stomach trouble that might arise from the four-course Italian dinner that you just ate.

You will find various types of digestivos in Italy, some of the most popular being limoncello and nocino.  They are often served in a small glass and are intended to be sipped.

Famous Italian Cocktails

Aperol Spritz

The Aperol Spritz, also called the Spritz Veneziano, originated in Venice in the 1950s and has been a famous Italian favorite ever since. 

We were first introduced to Aperol Spritz during our time in Venice. I was hooked and learned to make an Aperol Spritz immediately as this was one of my favorite drinks in Italy, especially the Veneto region!

The combination of Prosecco, Aperol, soda water, and an orange peel twist give the popular Italian Aperol Spritz cocktail a gorgeous orange hue. 

Make An Aperol Spritz

The ingredients for the famous Italian Aperol Spritz are Prosecco, Aperol, club soda, and an orange peel for garnish.

Popular Italian Drinks: Italian Liqueurs

The Italian word for “bitter” is amaro, which is totally suiting for this drink.  Amaro has a bitter-sweet, almost syrupy-like flavor and consistency.

Honestly, it feels as though “anything goes” with this Italian alcohol.  Regardless, they all have one thing in common, people love them and use them throughout drinks in Italy.

In the most simple of forms, vermouth is a fortified and aromatized wine.  Traditionally, vermouth is wine spiked with brandy and infused with herbs, spices, and a sweetener.

While vermouth was originally marketed for medicinal purposes, it quickly gained popularity as an aperitif and a great addition to cocktails.

Limoncello

I have to be honest here, I took my first sip of limoncello while visiting the beautiful island of Capri, Italy, and was instantly hooked. 

This delicious Italian lemon liqueur is produced in Southern Italy, specifically around the Gulf of Naples and the gorgeous Amalfi Coast.  Traditionally served cold in a small glass as a digestif, limoncello is the second most popular liqueur in Italy!

Limoncello produces a delicious lemon flavor without all of the sourness or bitterness of pure lemon juice. 

Try this great limoncello recipe to create limoncello at home.  It is surprisingly easy!

Mirto is traditionally served as a digestive and is always served well chilled and then sipped. 

Sambuca

One of the best-known after-dinner drinks in Italy is Sambuca.  This colorless, anise-flavored liqueur is often served neat or with water as water is said to enhance the flavor.

Buyer beware if you are choosing to partake in grappa. 

Grappa is traditionally served chilled and as a digestive after dinner.

Cynar

Cynar is a bitter liqueur that falls into the Camaro family.  Created by combining the artichoke with other plants and herbs, this drink has a bittersweet flavor that is unique all to itself.

Despite its dark color, Cynar actually mixes well in cocktails as it is sweeter than other amari.   

Amaretto

Italy’s love affair with amaretto is said to date back to the 1500s.  While there are a couple of claims as to who actually invented amaretto, one thing is for sure, this almond-flavored liqueur has withstood the test of time for sure.

Surprisingly though, amaretto may or may not contain almonds.  The base for amaretto is actually made from apricot pits, almonds, or both. 

Nocino

Yielding from Northern Italy, Nocino is a dark brown liqueur that is made from unripe green walnuts.  After steeping in the alcohol, the walnuts are removed and the alcohol is mixed with simple syrup.

Nocino yields a spicy, sweet-tasting liqueur that has a distinct flavor depending on where you get it.  It seems that each person has their own unique flavoring that they add to create their Nocino.

Often served chilled as an aperitif, Nocino is also great drizzled over vanilla ice cream!

If you have ever had a Harvey Wallbanger, then you have had Galliano liqueur.

Italian Wine

Chianti

Just uttering the words “Chianti wine” brings about visions of rolling Tuscan hills dotted with gorgeous vineyards as far as the eye can see.  This red wine from the Tuscany region is one of the most renowned Italian wines in the world and with good reason.

Chianti wine is made from the Sangiovese grape which has very thin skin.  This makes the ruby red wine appear almost translucent in color. 

This wine pairs well with food as it is incredibly high in acidity. Enjoy your Chianti wine with rich cuts of meat, or tomato-based pasta sauces.

This is truly a great wine to try in Italy!

Lambrusco

Lambrusco is a bubbly wine made from a family of red grapes originating from the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy.  One of the oldest Italian wines in Italy, Lambrusco comes in a variety of flavors ranging from dry to sweet.

This fruit-forward wine has notes of berries, rhubarb, and often violet.  It can range from lighter-bodied to full-bodied as well.  Lambrusco is often lightly bubbly and pairs well with just about anything!

Negretto

The Negretto grape is found in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy and produces a dark berry that is known for its hardiness and disease tolerance.  This dark grape produces a sweet, slightly tannic wine that is weak in body and alcohol content.

A Negretto is great to try in Italy.

Barolo

Barolo wine is a translucent brick-red colored wine that has the flavors of cherry, raspberry, and licorice.  This wine is full-bodied, high in tannins, and extremely dry. 

Best served with rich foods, Barolo is definitely a wine that should be on your list of popular Italian drinks to try.

The Barolo is great to drink in Italy.

Brunello di Montalcino

One of Italy’s top regional red wines, Brunello di Montalcino is a medium-body wine that is high in tannins and acidity. 

This dry wine yields flavors of plum, leather, and cherry and pairs well with high in fat foods like Prosciutto and Pancetta.

Vin Santo

Vin Santo is an Italian dessert wine that is traditional in the Tuscany region of Italy.  Typically Vin Santo wines are made from white grape varieties and can vary in sweetness levels from extremely dry to extremely sweet.

This full-bodied wine is often served in small glasses and paired with biscotti in the Tuscany region.

Prosecco

As you have probably noticed in the Italian cocktail recipes above, Prosecco is Italy’s favorite bubbly wine.  Originating from Northern Italy, Prosecco boasts flavors of green apple, honeydew, pear, and cream.

Prosecco is available in 3 different sweetness levels, so be sure to find the one that suits your taste. 

This delicious wine pairs well with food, especially a good antipasto.

Dolcetto

Dolcetto grapes are widely grown in northwest Italy in the Piedmont region. Haven’t heard of the piedmont region?  This region is in northern Italy and includes some fabulous towns, like the city of Turin. 

If you haven’t heard of Turin, you should check it out.  There are so many things to do in Turin, Italy, including seeing how these decadent dolcetto grapes are grown!

This grape produces a rich, soft, and fruity wine that pairs well with meat and vegetable dishes.

Nebbiolo

The word Nebbiolo is derived from the Italian word nebbia which means “fog.”  This is because there is generally a dense fog that settles over the vineyards during harvest season.  These grapes produce a light-colored red wine. 

Once aged, the wine takes on aromas and flavors of tar, herbs, spices, cherries, tobacco, and prunes, making this wine an acquired taste in my opinion.

The wine is bone dry and high in tannins making it pair well with high-fat cheeses.

Barbera

Barbera is the wine that the Italians drink in the Piedmont area.  This dry wine is medium to full-bodied and low in tannins. 

The palate will notice tastes of cherry, licorice, and blackberry along with a peppery finish.

Montepulciano

Montepulciano is one of my absolute favorite Italian wines.  While we didn’t make it to Montepulciano during our time in the Tuscany region, the town comes highly recommended.

This beautiful red wine is well balanced and has delicious notes of red plum, blackberry, and baking spices. 

The wine is semi-dry with a medium body and medium tannins.  Pair this delightful wine with sausage or a great meat pizza.

Italian Beer

Peroni

Peroni beer is an Italian Lager beer.  This beer is Italy’s number one premium beer.  Founded in Italy in 1846, this Italian beer is refreshing and easy to drink.  The crisp and subtle citrus beer is now a worldwide sensation with sales all over the planet.

Menabrea is an ancient beer that is produced in the Piedmont area of Italy. 

This prize-winning beer is produced in a blonde lager has a hint of sweetness to contrast the bitterness of the hops, creating a nicely balanced beer.

Moretti

Peroni’s Nastro Azzurro is another Italian lager beer.  This beer contains 5.1% alcohol by volume and has a crisp, citrus aroma.

Forst

Forst is based in Forst, Italy.  The brewery has been producing beer since 1857 and is still in business today.

Using spring water from the Alps gives Forst a clean, crisp taste to their premium lager.  This beer is great to enjoy alone or with food.

Forst also produces a Sixtus Doppelbock which is a darker beer that has a hint of malt, caramel, and toasted spices.

Italian Coffee

Ristretto

Ristretto is a delicious Italian coffee that tastes sweeter than a normal espresso shot.  The word ristretto means “restricted” and that perfectly describes the way that this shot is produced.  You see, it is made using the same amount of finely ground coffee, but less water.

The result is a sweet, less acidic coffee taste.  Honestly, this is one of my go-to coffee drinks in Italy.

Cappuccino

A cappuccino is an espresso-based Italian coffee drink that is prepared using espresso and steamed foamed milk.  You will see Italians enjoying cappuccinos all over the city on their way to work in the morning as it is one of the most popular Italian drinks.  This is the perfect start to your day of sightseeing.

A little tip that we tell you about in our things to know before visiting Rome, is to never order a cappuccino after lunch.

Espresso

Espresso is a brewing method that originated in Italy.  This is a strong coffee drink created when a small amount of nearly boiling water is forced under pressure through finely-ground coffee beans.

The beans are roasted for a longer period of time in order to be classified as espresso roast beans.  These beans are also ground finer than drip coffee to give espresso its unique taste.

Bicerin

Bicerin is a delightful treat that you just have to indulge in while in Italy.  You notice that I used the word “indulge.” 

Bicerin is a hot drink that originated in Italy in 1763.  Al Bicerin made this drink by layering espresso, drinking chocolate, and frothed milk in a small glass.

As you can see, Italy is full of delicious Italian drinks in Italy and Italian cocktails just waiting for you to try.
