Should you be wanting to support your local Italian restaurant during lockdown (Terra Mia, Kingston, tell Lino I sent you) then this is a nice way of spending your time whilst you wait for your Deliveroo.

This was a great after dinner drink. It was not as sweet as I was expecting. Used a New Zealand Savion Blanc. Great digestive.

I like both Limoncello and Frangelico a lot. So it was not a surprise that i like the combination of both with White Wine. I can't wait to serve it as Aperitif to an Italian evening before digging in on Carpaccio and Bolognese.
