Collection: Aperitifs

Aperitifs are traditionally drunk before a meal, and usually have dry or bitter flavours designed to stimulate your appetite. Classic aperitifs include dry vermouth and white wine, fizz and bitter drinks such as Campari. Cocktails including martinis, G&Ts, spritzes and negronis are also great pre-dinner tipples. Some dry and sparkling wines are classified as aperitifs, and champagne and prosecco are popular in this regard, as are rosé wines.

Even the martini, a drink of American origin that is popular around the world, is considered an aperitif.
