The taste of the Bicicletta Cocktail
31 Reviews
This summery aperitif has a surprisingly fresh flavour profile, characterised by fruity and tangy notes. Some sweetness, slightly tart notes and the taste of fruits determine the flavour profile. Depending on which white wine you use, the taste can be sweeter or drier. Overall, however, the aperitif is very refreshing, fruity and not very alcoholic.
