Italian Non-Alcoholic Aperitif
Crodino is Italy’s classic non-alcoholic aperitif, known for its sparkling bittersweet flavor and distinctive notes of orange, citrus, herbs and spice. Born in Crodo, Italy in 1965, it brings the character of a traditional Italian aperitivo without the alcohol.
You’ll receive 20 individual 100 mL glass bottles. Chill them and serve over ice with a slice of orange for a simple Italian aperitivo at home.
Crodino opens with bright orange and citrus notes followed by its characteristic bittersweet flavor. Herbal, spicy and lightly woody notes give it more complexity than an ordinary soft drink, while the carbonation keeps it crisp and refreshing.
The balance of citrus, sweetness and gentle bitterness is what gives Crodino the unmistakable character of an Italian aperitivo.
Crodino is best served well chilled. Pour one bottle into a glass filled with ice and garnish with a fresh slice of orange.
You can also add a splash of soda water for an extra-light aperitivo. It pairs naturally with olives, Italian cheeses, cured meats, crackers and other antipasto favorites.
Crodino was born in the Alpine town of Crodo in northern Italy in 1965. Its name comes from the town where the drink originated, and over the decades it has become one of Italy’s best-known non-alcoholic aperitivo drinks.
Its distinctive taste comes from a carefully prepared blend of botanicals, herbs, spices and roots. The botanical infusion is allowed to rest for months, helping create Crodino’s layered citrus, herbal and bittersweet character.
