Limoncello gets a winter makeover with Villa Cardea’s delicious seasonal serves
Italian liqueur brand Villa Cardea is showcasing limoncello’s festive versatility with four delicious, Italian-inspired cocktails created especially for the party season.
Villa Cardea’s authentic lemon liqueur, already a favourite among Asda shoppers, also rolled out to Morrisons stores nationwide over the summer allowing even more fans to enjoy the delicious Limoncello Spritz serve. To showcase why their ‘star of summer’ tastes just as good during the colder months, they’ve created a stylish series of cocktails that can easily be recreated at home for family and friends.
Produced in Bergamo in Northern Italy, Villa Cardea’s traditional limoncello is created using a unique, natural recipe which infuses the finest lemon peel from Sicily. Its intense yet balanced taste transports drinkers to Italy’s sun-soaked lemon groves and can be enjoyed on its own chilled, or in a whole host of cocktails.
