Instructions

The Bella Fortuna Highball is a vibrant, Italian-inspired cocktail that captures the essence and flair of a Las Vegas Casino Italian restaurant. It's a refreshing and lively concoction that combines the herbal notes of Italian aperitivo with the effervescence of prosecco and the crispness of citrus. Served in a sleek highball glass, it embodies the luck and luxury of the casino experience. Ingredients: - 1 oz Aperol - 1 oz Limoncello - 1/2 oz Fresh Lemon Juice - 1/2 oz Basil Simple Syrup* - 2 oz Prosecco - 2 oz Soda Water - Garnish: Basil Leaf, Lemon Wheel, and an Edible Gold Leaf Instructions: 1. In a shaker, combine Aperol, Limoncello, fresh lemon juice, and basil simple syrup. 2. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for 10-15 seconds until well chilled. 3. Strain the mixture into a highball glass filled with ice, leaving enough room for the toppers. 4. Gently top with prosecco, followed by soda water to maintain the bubbles and lightness. 5. Stir the cocktail gently to mix the flavors while still preserving the carbonation. 6. Garnish with a fresh basil leaf, a lemon wheel, and place a delicate edible gold leaf on top for that touch of Las Vegas extravagance. *Basil Simple Syrup: - 1 cup Water - 1 cup White Sugar - 1 cup Fresh Basil Leaves 1.
