A bright pink aperitif called Sarti is flooding German throats. It is supposed to convey the Italian way of life. The only problem is: no one in Florence or Rome has ever heard of it.
We had to learn that first, the aperitifthis celebrated drinking before butter is put on the bread and then the slice of poultry sausage is put on top. The magical piece of day when nobody looks at the clock too closely, the afternoon flows into the evening, and mineral water, sparkling wine and liqueur on a bed of ice in the glass goblet. Sparkling, fruity and bitter, in the colors of the sunset. The Aperol Spritz has become the symbol of German dolcevita.
