SalonEach summer, there seems to be a new "it cocktail." Related: How to make a better Aperol Spritz according to an Eataly beverage expert The 3-2-1 mix of Aperol, Prosecco and soda is the perfect combination of fruity, bitter and sparkling.

Negroni "If you wanted another classic Italian cocktail that is a little more bitter, you could try a Negroni," Orawski said.
