Beer the Italian Way

This cocktail is one of my favorites in Cocktail Italiano because beer is one of my beverages of choice! Are you surprised?! I love how it can be zippy and refreshing.

The beer americano has become very popular all along the Riviera. Instead of using soda or tonic, bartenders use beer to finish off this refreshing summer choice. I think you will love adding this to your summer cocktail arsenal, especially with long summer nights and fun summer holidays just around the corner.

Try it; you'll like it! Look for this and other amazing summer cocktails in Cocktail Italiano!
