This November, Primo Aperitivo is excited to announce two new additions to its Primo Aperitivo range – the Primo Aperitivo Sbagliato and the Primo Aperitivo Americano. These classic Italian cocktails will sit alongside the simple yet sophisticated Primo Aperitivo Negroni in the Italian cocktail range.
The Primo Aperitivo Sbagliato is an exceptionally refreshing cocktail and is Primo’s take on one of the trendiest cocktails in Italy. The Sbagliato was born in Milano in 1960 and it was the result of a simple mistake of the bartender that switched gin with sparkling wine while he was making a Negroni.. The Primo Aperitivo Americano, is a classic Italian Aperitivo, with a refreshing and striking mixture of flavours. Initially named “Milano-Torino” due to the origin of the ingredients, it was renamed “Americano” as the popularity of the drink grew amongst Americans after small changes to the recipe in the 20th Century led to the addition of soda water, creating a lighter, more refreshing flavour.
The two new additions to the Primo Aperitivo range bring their own unique element to the Primo collection, as both the Americano and the Sbagliato are carbonated upon bottling, adding a touch of sparkle to any Aperitivo hour.
Primo Aperitivo will be the first ever brand to release the Americano and Sbagliato cocktails in sharing format and ready to serve
