Milan is the home of the Aperitivo

Aperitivo and Happy Hour in the city are most definitely a ritual which no Milanese is prepared to forego

The Aperitivo, the beloved Milanese tradition of predinner drinks, is accompanied by complimentary “stuzzichini” and an all-you-can-eat buffet. Spreads range from traditional olives, nuts, cheeses and potato chips to awesome pasta dishes, “bruschetta”, cold cuts, crudités, raw fish and fruit salads. Generally, lasting for 3 hours from 6 to 9pm (though most people rarely get there until 7pm), the aperitivo scene has become an evening meeting for people of all ages. Cocktails – alcoholic or not – are expertly mixed and a Negroni, Negroni sbagliato (a delicious mix of prosecco, red vermouth and Aperol instead of gin) or a Spritz are Milanese specialities. Favourite beverages consumed during this beloved tradition in Milan include also the city’s renowned Martini, Prosecco or Campari, accompanied by an all-youcan-eat buffet.
