Frangelico

Frangelico is an Italian liqueur produced by the Campari Group. It is made from the seeds of the bitter orange tree, which are steeped in alcohol and then sweetened with sugar. The name "Frangelico" is derived from the Italian word "frangipani," which refers to the flower of the bitter orange tree. The liqueur is known for its distinctive flavor, which is a blend of bitterness and sweetness, with notes of almond and citrus.

Frangelico is typically served chilled and is often used as a digestif after a meal. It can also be used in cocktails, such as the Negroni, where it is combined with gin and Campari. The liqueur is available in various strengths, ranging from 15% to 30% alcohol by volume. Frangelico is produced in several countries, including Italy, the United States, and France.

The history of Frangelico dates back to the early 20th century, when the Campari Group began experimenting with the seeds of the bitter orange tree. The liqueur was first produced in 1948 and has since become a popular digestif and cocktail ingredient worldwide. Frangelico is known for its high-quality ingredients and traditional production methods, which have helped it maintain its reputation as a premium liqueur.
