The genre of tiny red bittersweet sodas is a common one in Italy. Sure, they're sweet, but they're less than 200ml and pretty bitter, so you want to sip it over ice and really savour the experience. The bitterness really does wake up the palate, meaning it's a perfect pre-dinner drink, or can pair well with rich foods. Similar to a Campari Soda but totally non-alcoholic.
If you like this genre of bittersweet drink but want to try the "best possible version", check out the Phony Negroni from St. Agrestis, who were inpsired by these little drinks, right down to their unique triangular bottle design. They extract all their own botanicals and spices themselves - it's like the Lamborghini to Stappj's Fiat. We think Fiat's are cute, so no shade, each are perfect in their own way.
