Spuma Alpina Aranciata

TASTING NOTES FROM THE CURATOR

The word “aranciata” means “orange juice” in Italian, and this drink is definitely straight-to-the-point. Spuma Alpina is Fava Bibite’s line of traditional drinks combined with modern tastes, packaged in glass bottles with resealable caps. Their Aranciata is made with carefully selected Italian oranges, aromatic and juicy. It’s combined with juices of lemon and acerola (a type of cherry), and this gives this drink and irresistible quality. It’s soft and rounded on the palate, with a refined flavor—sweet, with a nice tang.

PREPARATION AND PAIRINGS

Serve the Spuma Alpina Aranciata chilled or over ice. It’s a drink that both adults and children will love, and is great to pair with a variety of foods, from cheese to creamy pastas to desserts.

A DELICIOUS TRADITION

Inside the Brughiera Natural Park, in Como, Lombardy, you will find a small artisan company by the name of Fava Bibite. Italy has a big tradition of soft drinks, and this company is a big part of it.

Fava Bibite has been a family business for three generations, making quality soft drinks for more than fifty years. They use an old recipe, one that uses only natural aromas, and uses no preservatives nor sweeteners. They are the healthier alternative to other drinks, as Fava Bibite does not pack their products with sugar. Their range is wider than just soft drinks now, of course. They make tonics, ginger ales, and organic versions of cola. Whether drunk on their own, or mixed into cocktails, Fava Bibite guarantees quality and deliciousness.
