Book two is full speed ahead....Join me for Aperitivo on the Italian Riviera

As most of you know I have 2 big projects going on at the same time: our Italian house renovation and my second book, Cocktail Italiano, a book about Aperitivo, the cocktail culture of the Italian Riviera.My next book will literally be a guide book to my favorite pastime in Italy, "Aperitivo". The book will be a perfect Apero primer to toss into your suitcase and accompany you on your cocktail infused travels along the coastline of Italy. The book will be chock-full of beautiful destinations along the Ligurian coastline. Cocktail Italiano includes all my favorite little bars, seaside joints, and swanky hotels to pass the night away sipping spirits and partaking in scrumptious nibbles. The book will also be filled with the most popular Italian cocktails and nibbles recipes for you to enjoy Aperitivo in your own home Italian style. It's the ultimate insiders' guide to some of the authentic Italian Aperitivo destinations.A little about the title "Cocktail Italiano": it is a riff on my all time favorite Italian song "Mambo Italiano."  I am super jazzed to share my book with you as it captures the Italian Riviera Lifestyle and showcases the cocktail culture of my favorite Italian region, Liguria, where we have lived for the past 13 years every summer.You will be transported to this gorgeous vital region of Italy. I have spent the last 2 years photographing the book myself with a little help for my friends. It's been a passion project and tons of fun. So look for little snippets on my instagram feed, along with the release next Spring 2018.Let the cocktails begin, cin cin xx
