Recipe:

According to a popular Italian legend, the Bicicletta—“bicycle” in Italian—was named after the elderly men who swerved all over the road while riding home after a few afternoon drinks at the café. In the traditional aperitivo style, this cocktail combines two of Italy's favorite early evening drinks. Campari adds a delightfully bitter complexity to dry Italian white wine, and a splash of club soda turns the mixture into a refreshing spritz.

Dry Italian White Varietals:

Pinot Grigio, Trebbiano, Garganega, Verdicchio, Arneis, Bellone, Etna Bianco (Sicily), Falanghina, Fiano, Pecorino, Vermentino

  • 2 oz Campari
  • 2 oz. dry Italian white wine,
  • 5-2 oz. soda water (To top)
  • Orange Wheel for garnish
