At All’Arco, a small and busy lunch place not far from the Rialto in Venice, there’s not a lot a room to eat. So people head outside with their drinks and plates of fresh cichetti (Venetian for snacks). There are few outdoor tables, so glasses come to rest where they can, on ancient windowsills and stoops. By early afternoon, the alleys around the restaurant resemble an open-air dining hutch, lined with goblets. The ones that glow red are Campari spritzes; the orange, Aperol. Spritz culture is ingrained in the cities and towns of northern Italy, where ice-filled chalices of the classic combo — bitter liqueur and sparkling wine or water (or both) — refract sunlight on every other cafe table. You can even buy a spritz at the Venice airport before you board your plane. The drink’s footing in the United States is a bit shakier, rooted mainly in embarrassing memories from the 1970s and ‘80s of sipping bland concoctions called white wine spritzers. But that’s beginning to … [Read more...] about Bitter and Bubbly, the Spritz Evolves

close Video Fox News Flash top headlines for January 26 Fox News Flash top headlines are here. Check out what's clicking on Foxnews.com. Gov. Tim Walz proposed a $3.3 billion public infrastructure package Thursday that would use a combination of borrowing and cash to finance improvements to roads, bridges, water systems, housing and the environment across Minnesota . "The investments in our Infrastructure Plan are a down payment on the future of our state," Walz said in a statement. "Strong infrastructure is what allows Minnesotans to live safe and healthy lives. It’s what keeps our drinking water clean, our roads and bridges safe to drive on, and our communities safe from flooding." The proposal, known as a bonding bill, would be the largest in state history if the Democratic governor gets everything he wants. But that appears unlikely, given that he would need at least some Republican votes in both the House and Senate to get the … [Read more...] about Minnesota Gov. Walz proposed $3.3B in infrastructure spending

Press Release Desk , News Partner Posted Reply Press release from Nashville Public Library: June 30, 2021 This story can be found in Andrew Lang’s Pink Fairy Book . Hello, and welcome to Family Folktales from the Nashville Public Library. I’m Susan Poulter, a Librarian at the Main Library. Today’s story is The Flying Trunk, a story by Hans Christian Andersen found in Andrew Lang’s Pink Fairy Book. There was once a merchant who was so rich that he could have paved the whole street with gold, and would even then have had enough for a small alley. But he did not do so; he knew the value of money better than to use it in this way. So clever was he, that every shilling he put out brought him a crown; and so he continued till he died. His son inherited his wealth, … [Read more...] about Nashville Public Library: The Flying Trunk

The state of the American wine industry is grim, according to a closely watched report that annually analyzes its trajectory. Winemakers and advertisers are missing out on younger consumers, the report says, by failing to produce wines that fit their budgets and neglecting to reach out to them with targeted marketing campaigns. “ State of the U.S. Wine Industry 2023 ,” which has made recommendations for more than 20 years, found that the only area of growth for American wine was among consumers over 60, said its author, Rob McMillan, executive vice president of Silicon Valley Bank in Santa Clara, Calif., and a longtime analyst of the American wine industry. The biggest growth area, he said, was among 70- to 80-year-olds. As it has in recent years, the report urged the wine industry to do a better job of appealing to younger consumers, who have many more beverage options today than baby boomers did in their formative years. Among those are craft beers, small-production spirits and … [Read more...] about The American Wine Industry Has an Old People Problem

JUST as the culinary cognoscenti press us into embracing certain food trends (“You will eat pork belly! Love cupcakes now! Hate cupcakes now!”) so, too, do they dictate our drinks. First, several years ago, there was St.-Germain, the delicate elderflower liqueur. Early on, it entered a long-term relationship with prosecco: if you wanted to date the sparkling Italian refreshment, you were stuck with its French chaperon. Next up was Domaine de Canton, and every lounge drink began to taste vaguely of gingersnaps. Coming around the corner is Cynar; get ready to explain to your dinner guests why you are making them a martini that tastes of artichoke. But for the time being, we live in the world of Aperol, a slightly bitter, go-down-easy Italian aperitif that has found its way into bartenders’ flutes and highball glasses from Los Angeles to London. The popularity of the century-old mixer stems from the marketing juggernaut that pumps up many spirits these days, as well as … [Read more...] about Sipping on a Sunset, Italy in Mind
