Best Italian Cocktails For Your Tuscany Wedding

Picture yourself under the heat of the warm Tuscan skies, with nothing but blue skies and majestic landscapes around you. You and your loved ones are all gathered together, eager for the festivities to begin and taking in the beauty around you. Just as everyone is about to raise a toast to your Tuscany wedding and a long marriage filled with joy, love, and happiness, you first need to think about the drinks your guests will be savoring.

Naturally, you can never go wrong with classic drinks. But since you’re hosting a Tuscany wedding, you’ll need to think outside the box. More precisely, you should consider coming up with signature Italian cocktails that will bring the region’s essence through the tastebuds.

Luckily, bartending in Italy is an art form that has existed for the longest time, and master mixologists have created cocktails that enliven the soul from the very first sip. For that reason, we’ve rounded up some of the finest Italian cocktails you should serve at your Tuscany wedding. Best of all, they’re quite simple to make, so you won’t need to spend a fortune on your bar services!

Negroni

What better way to start our list of the best Italian wedding signature drinks than with a cocktail that comes directly from Florence’s heart? Count Camillo Negroni is the founder of this exquisite drink. When he requested an “Americano with a hint of gin” in the ever-famous Caffe Casoni, a new cocktail was born.

Although the bitterness of this Italian cocktail may not be suitable for everyone’s taste, its vibrant color paired with orange zest will provide the perfect refreshment for your Tuscany wedding.

Aperol Spritz

Speaking of orange cocktails, an Aperol Spritz is a must-have on your Italian wedding menu. This is undoubtedly the favorite drink for many locals, and it was first created in Venice. Interestingly enough, the “modern” Aperol Spritz is slightly different from the traditional recipe. That said, if you want to go the full traditional route for your Tuscany wedding, swap out the white wine and sparkling water with Prosecco and a dash of soda.

Hugo

If your Tuscany wedding takes place in the summer, Hugo is the perfect Italian cocktail to beat the heat. Compared to the previous entries, this drink is relatively new, and it first appeared high up in the mountains of Alto Adige. Germans picked up on the drink, quickly spread it across Italian borders, and the rest is history! Also, the original recipe is non-alcoholic, so everyone can enjoy the refreshing Hugo, no matter their drinking preferences.

Italian 75

As you know, Limoncello is one of the most famous Italian drinks, and it’s mainly produced on the ever-sunny Amalfi Coast. Obviously, mixologists around the country succumbed to its zesty and fresh flavor and were quickly inspired to create all sorts of tantalizing cocktails, including the Italian 75.

This is the perfect Italian cocktail to serve after dinner as it is a palate cleanser. Its distinct flavor dances between sharp and sweet, making it an unforgettable staple of your Tuscany wedding.

Bellini

Finally, the Bellini, a sweet Italian cocktail created in the world-famous Harry’s Bar in Venice, is the ultimate addition to your wedding menu. Consisting only of Prosecco and white peach puree, the pink-colored Bellini will surely hit the sweet spot.

As you create the menu for your Tuscany wedding, don’t brush off the importance of including signature cocktails. Our recommendations will not only provide a fabulous taste but will elevate the celebration’s atmosphere, making it truly unforgettable. Raise a glass to love, laughter, and happily ever after with these remarkable Italian cocktails!
