Rosso Antico

Rosso Antico ("Ancient red") is an aperitif produced in San Lazzaro di Savena, Italy.

It is produced by the infusion of 32[1] herbs macerated in alcohol (including rosemary, thyme and sage[1]) and then added to a mixture of 5 different types of wine.

The drink is ruby-colored[1] and has a sweet-sour flavor with notes of citrus and vanilla.

Its alcohol content is 17%[1] and is recommended for consumption as an aperitif, served plain with a slice of orange.

It is also a red stoneware body developed by Josiah Wedgwood.
