Easygoing, Italian-inspired, and made for good conversation
Aperitivo hour is more than a time of day—it’s a feeling.
It’s that sweet spot between work and dinner. A moment to unwind, chat, sip something light, and ease into the evening. At The Pasta Bistro, we serve drinks that embrace that spirit: Italian in essence, relaxed by design, and perfect for pairing with a small plate or a slow afternoon.
If you’re someone who loves Aperol Spritz or just appreciates a drink that’s crisp, refreshing, and not too heavy—this guide is for you.
1. Aperol Spritz
Let’s start with the obvious—and the classic.
Made with Aperol, prosecco, and a splash of soda water, the Aperol Spritz is bright, citrusy, and slightly bitter in the best way. It’s the drink that kicked off the aperitivo trend globally—and it still hits the mark every time.
Try it with: bruschetta, olives, or anything with a touch of salt.
2. Amaretto Spritz
A softer, sweeter take on the traditional spritz. Amaretto, lemon-lime soda, and cranberry juice come together in a drink that’s almond-forward, subtly fruity, and endlessly sip-worthy.
It’s a great option if you’re looking for something with flavour but without too much bite.
Pairs well with: grilled haloumi or light pasta dishes like Alfredo.
3. Negroni
For those who want something with a little more edge. A Negroni blends Campari, vermouth rosso, and gin into a bold, balanced aperitif that’s made to be sipped slowly.
It’s strong, aromatic, and built for the kind of night that starts early and ends well.
Best served with: prosciutto, cheese, or seafood starters.
4. Cantina Trevigiana Prosecco
If you prefer to keep things simple, a glass of Prosecco is all you need. Light bubbles, mild fruit, and a dry finish make it ideal for hot days, long lunches, or weekend catch-ups. It’s festive without feeling formal.
Pairs beautifully with: salads, seafood, or a mid-afternoon chat.
5. Berry Spritz (Mocktail)
Not drinking? You can still join the moment.
Our Berry Spritz is non-alcoholic but full of flavour—made with fresh fruit blends, soda, and just enough sparkle. It’s the kind of drink you’ll finish without even noticing there’s no alcohol in it.
Enjoy with: light bites, dessert, or just as a refresher before your main.
Why It Works
Aperitivo hour is about connection, not celebration. It’s casual, calming, and meant to whet your appetite—not steal the show.
At The Pasta Bistro, we’ve curated a drinks menu that honours that rhythm. Come in for a spritz, stay for a small plate—or make it the start of something longer.
