Sicilian Sunset

Cocktails with a pronounced bitter backbone, typically from amari, Campari, gentian, or bitters. Bitter drinks stimulate the appetite and pair especially well with other bold flavors.

Bitter

Cocktails where lemon, lime, orange, or grapefruit drive the flavor. Citrus notes add brightness, acidity, and aromatic zest to a drink.

Citrus

Cocktails finished with sparkling wine, soda, tonic, or ginger beer. Effervescence adds lift, a dry edge, and a refreshing feel.

Effervescent

Lower-proof, often bitter cocktails served before a meal to whet the appetite. Think spritzes, vermouth-based drinks, and Campari builds.
