La Campagne Cocktail Inspired by La Traviata

Join La Traviata’s Violetta and Alfredo in their idyllic, countryside life with this delightful cocktail. It’s inspired by “wayward woman” who is the opera’s title character. She is the belle of every Parisian party who falls deeply in love with her beau idéal. When she and her lover run away from the opprobrium of high society, they start a new life in the country. Soon however, their happiness is threatened. Alfredo’s father urges Violetta to give up her love to protect the family’s honor. Drama ensues.   

What is Italicus Bergamotto Liqueur?

Infused with the vibrant essence of Calabrian bergamot, Italicus Bergamotto Liqueur is a unique spirit that elevates cocktails with its refreshing notes. This Italian import isn’t your average liqueur. Crafted with a blend of Italian botanicals and citrus peels, Italicus offers a complex flavor profile that goes beyond just bergamot. It works well in both classic and contemporary cocktails. Try it neat, on the rocks, or as a sparkling spritz for a summer drink. Or, use Italicus as a substitute for gin or white wine to add a subtle bergamot twist to your favorite recipes.
