Quench your thirst with these quick and delicious beverages!
Have you ever tried a Seltz lime e sale after your routine? It's electrolyte-rich and regenerates your body quickly replenishing the liquids. Or have you ever tasted an elderflower or a lemon balm juice on a hot day? These are cooling, sweat-beating summer drinks that make those sweltering days almost something to look forward to.
All drinks recipes are easy to make and the ingredients are easy to find. Some recipes belong to the Italian tradition, others are family heirlooms.
Not all beverages are alcohol free. Liqueurs, digestivi - alcoholic drinks that aid digestion - and elixirs are from my grandma's kitchen. These are generally served at the end of a meal or accompany a dessert. The dessert, generally a little cookie needs to be dipped in the alcoholic drink in order to taste. I ensure you it works.
