Bellissimo is a Frangelico cocktail combined with Campari and limoncello.
When all the ingredients are combine, they reveal the sweetness of the hazelnuts and the bitterness of the orange in Campari giving you a unique flavour. I would describe it as sweet and sour cherry flavour!?
Not only … but also this is an interesting combination! I would almost call Frangelico cocktail a female version of Negroni.
Frangelico is a hazelnut and herb liquor produced in the Piedmont region, north Italy. Amazingly, this liquor has been produced for more than 300 years, it’s origin dates back to the early presence of Christian monks. Therefore such an old liquor has some unique ingredients, the hazelnuts that used are from Piedmont and called – Tonda Gentile.
