| | | | We did mention snacks, right? Or more properly aperitivo, stuzzichini. Even if your stuzzichini is little more than a bowl of olives and some hunks of cheese (and that is more than alight), this cheese set will elevate that to an art. And take you toward dinner. | | | | | | | |
|
| | | | You could use these glasses for water, but doesn't vermouth over a couple of ice cubes sound better right about now? At 4-inches tall, these unique green hand-blown glasses (made from recycled beer and wine bottles) also an ideal whisky sipper. | | | | | | | |
|
| | | | As Danielle Callegari points out, stemless wine glasses let everyone relax without fretting about spills. And aperitivo hour isn't quite aperitivo hour until you've popped the cork on a crisp, acidic white wine. This is all about opening up the appetite, might Jeff Porter suggest Bottega Vinaia Pinot Grigio. | | | | | | | |
|
| | | | We will sometimes leave our drink and garnish station—oranges, lemons, etc—out in the open (with a few simple handwritten recipes to give guests a start). And this is one board you will likely want to leave out. | | | | | | | |
|
| | | | These versatile petit coupes can welcome the party with a splash of bubbles, or serve your favorite aperitif. Where they really shine at 7 ounces though is as a serving glass for smaller, spirits-forward cocktails. | | | | | | | |
|
| | | | The elegance of these glasses belies how substantial they are (at 21 ounces). They may have been designed to amplify the juniper notes in gin, but not everyone loves gin (but if you do, these are for you). However, we like them for spritzes of all kinds. Let the Aperol flow. | | | | | | | |
|
| | | | Did someone say Negroni? Must have, because these glasses showed up and that's what we are putting in them. | | | | | | | |
