It is the time of the year when one’s social media feed is a flurry of candid and carefully curated pics of Europe. The depths of winter in Melbourne can be a little harsh – a little unrelenting – which makes almost anyone astral project themselves to a picturesque Italian beachside town soaking in the warmth on a sunbed with a spritz at hand. Bippi and Ambra Spirits have united to spice up aperitivo hour – and our fantasies – with their Spicy Limoncello Spritz Cocktail Kit.

The limited-edition Spicy Limoncello Spritz Cocktail Kit may be the answer you are looking for. Founded in 2020 by Ben Circosta, Bippi is a Melbourne-made, family-owned business specialising in homemade Italian chilli. The recipe originates in 1955 by Ben’s Nonna Emilia. South Australian-based Ambra Spirits bring fun, flavour and passion to life with their range of traditionally inspired, locally produced spirits. Their signature limoncello is a 100% authentic Italian family recipe spanning generations inspired by co-founder Peppe Fusco’s grandparents’ recipe from their Amalfi Coast region. 

What’s in the kit you ask? Everything you need to construct a fiery, citrus spritz at home with a chilli salt rim. The kit contains the limited edition Bippi Chilli Salt, Ambra Limoncello, in a funky bottle, and chilli-infused dried fruit to garnish. To turn up the heat, a jar of Bippi Italian Style Hot Chilli can be found and a recipe sheet to make Limoncello Chilli Vongole. 

‘We are two proudly Italian-Australian products that have come together with a fresh new take on these Mediterranean culinary essentials. Why not indulge in Ambra and Bippi’s original Spicy Limoncello Spritz for an aperitivo, before whipping up a zesty spin on the iconic chilli and limoncello Spaghetti Vongole,’ says Ben Circosta, Bippi. 

The Limoncello Spritz kit is perfect for a gift, a night-in or pre-drinks before heading out and braving the elements. Caution: the chilli salt packs some heat. The limoncello is refreshing and invigorating. 

Stocks are limited so don’t miss the chance to purchase the kit. Visit the Bippi and Ambra websites for more information.
