The Livorno Recipe
Email
One of the best things to come from Livorno, a seaside town in western Tuscany, is the complexly herbal liqueur known as Galliano. Here we combine it with sparkling apple cider and Prosecco for a light, fruity cocktail.
What to buy: Galliano is an Italian liqueur with a yellow color and an herbal flavor. It can be found in most specialty liquor stores.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 1/4 ounces Galliano
- 2 1/2 ounces sparkling apple juice
- Ice
- 8 ounces chilled Prosecco
INSTRUCTIONS
Combine Galliano and apple juice in a cocktail shaker filled halfway with ice. Stir until chilled and frost is forming on the shaker, about 10 stirs. Strain between two champagne flutes and divide Prosecco evenly.
Addendum to my last comment. I just followed the internet trail to the source of the recipe -- Aida Mollenkamp -- and ended up with the name of her agent. There really should be a way to follow up on postings.
Yes, drink sounds yummy, but I'd love to know something about the glassware. Anyone involved in the photography session out there?
The drink sounds yummy, but I can't tear my eyes away from the glassware in the photo. Really beautiful. Anyone know...?
