The Brindisino was created for sipping slowly while enjoying a quiet moment at home. The name is derived from the Italian word brindisi; which means a toast, as in a drink.
I created this drink to offer a strong grip that will accompany those great moments when one gets to sit back in a leather recliner and maybe just watch the rain fall outside. Or maybe read quietly, or host a special someone for a profound conversation. Or maybe just to reflect on the days that have passed.
The Frangelico and dashes of orange offer a softening depth to the punch packed whiskey and bitter vermouth.
This little toast is a celebration of having that time to oneself with no chaos to disturb it. So, stir things up, kick back, and unwind with The Brindisino.
