In the trattorias and enotecas of Italy, Prosecco is another guest at the beckoning table, sipped liberally to end the workday, to begin a meal, to help digest the meal - with a sense of well-being that other cultures aspire to. Although delicious on its own, Prosecco's effervescence and refreshing acidity make it an ideal partner with a variety of other ingredients. It's gracefully light on the palate, yet Prosecco has enough body to maintain its character when mixed with fruits, berries, herbs, bitters, infusions or liqueurs, as artfully and effortlessly as it's done in Italy. From aperitivo to digestivo, this sparkling wine lover's guide is an "Italian Collection" of 88 eclectic drink recipes built on a foundation of delightfully versatile Prosecco - from faithfully re-created regional rituals to inventive, artisan cocktail-inspired notions and sophisticated party drinks.
