In the summer we enjoy sharing our refreshing Amaro Spritz with friends and family. It has become the signature welcome drink at our Sunday Night Neapolitan Pizza Dinner Parties, and I must admit that I am missing it already.
Inspired once again by the incredible Amaro Nonino, I crafted a delightful fall spritz that combines the Nonino’s exquisite blend of macerated herbs, roots, and spices with our favorite locally sourced fresh-pressed apple cider from The Milk Pail in Water Mill, and slices of apple from our own fruit trees. This year, the Apple Cider Amaro Spritz will take center stage as our Thanksgiving welcome drink, gracefully replacing our beloved Cranberry Margarita.
As the trees begin to change colors, our vegetable garden is yielding the last few leeks and peppers, our landscape is transformed into a fall foliage masterpiece, and the few remaining apples and pears on our espalier are at their ripest. It is the perfect moment to toast another wonderful summer, and beautiful Autumn.
