A drinks list for summer

    •    Stories    •    No comments

When summer is in full swing and the sun is blazing down, it’s vital to drink plenty, but drinking well is a true luxury!

That may be true… but the usual cocktails are so boring! Original drinks are hard to find, often hard to understand, and most of the time can’t be reproduced at home, because bartenders jealously guard the secret of their ingredients and proportions.

Here at Marolo we wanted to reverse the trend, and with the help of the expert hands of Luigi Barberis, mixologist at the legendary Caffè degli Artisti in Alessandria, propose a drinks list for summer featuring our latest, most versatile product – Vermouth Domenico Ulrich.

These drinks are quick and easy to make with ingredients that can easily be found in the supermarket , because as Barberis himself says, the beauty of a drinks list is not the bartender’s ego, or even his expertise, but the fact that anyone can reproduce it at home, whenever they please.

All you have to do is buy a bottle of Vermouth Domenico Ulrich (there is at least one recipe for each type: RossoBiancoDry and Rosso Superiore) and unleash your thirst for creativity!

P.S.

  1. Vermouth Domenico Ulrich Rosso
  2. Vermouth Domenico Ulrich Rosso Superiore Umberto I

DRINKS LIST FOR SUMMER

Fresh and spicy Vermouth Rosso combined with Brandy and enhanced by an unexpected touch of bitterness. A drink for sunset in the mountains.

3 cl Italian brandy
0.5 cl Amaro Ulrich

 

EL REI

Vermouth Rosso again, but this time with the potency of vodka and the unexpected aromatic fragrance of chinotto. A drink to sip on a veranda overlooking the sea.

IL CAVALIERE

Let’s move on to the freshness and femininity of Vermouth Bianco, with its delicate floral flavours mixed with the unique bitterness of Angostura and the perlage of a spumante, an Italian sparkling wine. The result is a wonderfully fresh drink to enjoy on the beach at any time, on any occasion.

1 cl Amaro Ulrich
2 dashes of Angostura

IL CRUCCO

Beer and Vermouth? Yes, believe it or not, thanks to the nobility of Vermouth Rosso Superiore Umberto I, which will captivate you with its intoxicating balsamic notes. A midnight swim drink.

L’ELEGANTE

When it comes to Gin, there’s nothing better than Vermouth Extra Dry. Walnut, lemon and wild berry notes blend with the fresh flavour of Celery Bitters and an irresistible touch of Marsala.   A cocktail for romantic poolside evenings.
