Cheers to the Weekend || Campari Milano

This summer we spent a few days near Munich because we were visiting family friends.  This family is so much fun and they surely know how to entertain. They are German/Italian so we had amazing cuisine from both places.  We had an award winning wiener schnitzel with a delicious potato salad as well as the most divine mushroom risotto ever (which I learned to make btw! complete with the key secret ingredient!). And the drink of choice for this visit was the Campari Milano which I completely fell in love with.  I never really have Campari so this was a fun and delicious change from the cocktails I might venture to try.  I have been so obsessed with it that I introduced it to my family and now it is all we have every weekend to accompany our special family meals.  It is festive, delicious and kind of exciting, if a drink can be explained as exciting.  Here it is-
