Sgroppino
Bicicletta
Sangria
After a long lunch or decadent dinner, this cocktail is not only refreshing but may also help to relax your stomach.
As we get ready to enjoy the Santos Festival of Cycling, the Biciletta is a perfect pre-race watching drink. This aperitif is drier and shorter than the Aperol Spritz.
To create this twist on the classic Spanish cocktail, use a smooth, full-fruit wine with a bit of body to create a balanced drink. Enjoy in a wine glass or multiply the recipe and fill a large punch bowl.
