If you love the dolce vita or want to savour the famous spritz cocktail, perhaps overlooking the San Marco Basin or relaxing in Venice’s Royal Gardens, this experience is perfect. The highlight is the spritz, a historic cocktail of uncertain origin, made with Prosecco, Aperol and a splash of sparkling water or Seltz. Its more bitter version uses Select or Campari, and every recipe has its own secret twist. To make the moment truly Venetian, the aperitif is served with cicchetti, savoury bites and vegetable crisps.
The setting is a stunning building in the heart of the city, just behind Piazza San Marco. Once a greenhouse, now a charming café, it is bathed in natural light by day and offers colourful sunsets reflected on the San Marco Basin in the evening. Nearby, the Royal Garden adds a touch of greenery to the city centre. Spritz may be found everywhere, but enjoying it in this welcoming, uniquely located café is incomparable.
