A little bit of Italy traveled to the 2021 Austin Food + Wine Festival featuring cocktails made with Amaro Montenegro in the charming traveling pop up bar, Bar Monte.
Amaro Montenegro, the beloved Italian digestif, is bringing the magic of Italy’s aperitivo hour to Austin Food + Wine festival with Bar Monte, a traveling pop-up bar meant to mimic the simplicity of Italian bar culture with cafe-like seating and creative cocktails featuring Amaro Montenegro.
Bar Monte served up Amaro Montenegro cocktails like the Monterita and Montenegroni, or classics like the Monte & Tonic or on the rocks with a twist.
We took our time and sipped at tables that mimic what you’d find on cobblestoned Italian streets and watch festival goers and cocktails lovers play lawn games complete the pop-up’s casual vibe: bocce pays homage to Monte’s Italian roots while cornhole provides an American-inspired pastime.
We couldn’t decide so we sampled both. The cocktails were so refreshing. We love the unique flavors that Amaro Montenegro adds to cocktails. Soooo Italian !
Who doesn’t love a Monterita, Montenegroni or an M & M? We do!
