Introduction
The Americano, a cocktail with an intriguing history, dates back to the 1860s when it was first served at Gaspare Campari’s bar in Milan. Its name is derived from the popularity it gained among American tourists during Prohibition. The Americano offers a balanced and refreshing taste with a delightful bitterness from Campari, combined with the sweetness of vermouth and the effervescence of soda water.
