AMERICANO SBAGLIATO

An Americano that is “wrong” in all its components: the Biancosarti, a famous delicate bitter, the Torino-style amber vermouth and the Alpestre, a spirit with bitter and herbaceous notes, are complemented by the Freisa di Chieri Frizzante DOC of the Torino hills.

Ingredients

4 cl Freisa di Chieri Frizzante DOC
5 cl Biancosarti 5 cl Vermouth Anselmo Riserva
1 cl Liquore Alpestre

Pour the ingredients, except the wine, into an Old fashioned glass filled with ice.

Mix gently and add two short straws. Gently pour the wine so that it remains in suspension, creating a colour shade. Serve as it is but mix before drinking.
