Try it in your next Vesper or Corpse Reviver #2 or as is done in Italy, serve chilled with ice, a twist of orange peel and a splash of soda to bring out all it its natural aroma and fragrances.

Staff Pick Notes

I am the laziest bartender. I love to drink precious cocktails, but I hate to make them. I really, truly hate it. Honestly, shaking and stirring for me are reserved exclusively for special occasions, and I'm straining (HAR HAR) to think of a time I used more than three ingredients to make something for myself. My aversion to dirtying the entire kitchen for a single four-ounce drink may have lead to my obsession with high-quality vermouths, which are hands down the best way to camouflage your disdain for "mixology" while maintaining a sincere enthusiasm for day-drinking. To enjoy Cocchi Americano, just pour some in a glass with ice and top with La Croix (flavor choice: yours). If you have the energy, finish it with a twist and a squeeze of whatever citrus you've got lying around. There. Even I can do that.
