Sgroppino

Sgroppino is an Italian cocktail that originated in Veneto. In its simplest form, the cocktail is a refreshing mix of lemon sorbet or lemon gelato, vodka, and Prosecco. It is traditionally served in a flute glass. Its origin dates to the 16th century, when a similar drink was enjoyed by the aristocracy.


It was mainly served between meals as a refreshing palate cleanser. Contemporary variations come in different flavors, such as strawberry, grapefruit, mandarin, or coffee. Some also include limoncello or grenadine. Sgroppino is nowadays mostly enjoyed as an after-dinner drink.
