Recipe: Vittorio Emanuele

Rebecca Connors February 2, 2023

Celebrity mixologist Dennis Zoppi created this mocktail specifically for use with the Ripples Chameleon Pod. The acidity from the orange juice creates a vibrant pink with the pH-sensitive, plant-based (cabbage juice!) extract. Named after the last King of Sardinia who became the First King of a United Italy this beautifully layered cocktail represents many parts joining up to create something beautiful together, while still remaining distinct.

Sanbitter is a popular Italian aperitif, with an herbal bitterness and notes of fruit and spices. It elevates this beverage and you feel like you’re having a full cocktail experience, even though it’s an alcohol free drink. What could make this beverage even better? Of course, innovative cocktail drink designs.

A mocktail fit for a king!

  • 40 ml non-alcoholic Sanbitter
  • 100 ml orange juice (enough to fill glass to the brim)
