“We thought that dropping an Italian iconic and traditional ingredient – such as Olive Oil – into cocktails would have been a perfect means to show a creative use of it. Especially in the city that many believe is the world capital of cocktails,” says Maurizio Gamberucci, Deputy Director, Italy-America Chamber of Commerce of Texas.
A master class led by renowned mixologist Anna Giordano at the Southern Food & Beverage Museum in New Orleans, discussed how to use olive oil in cocktails. The event was held in person and attendees enjoyed learning about the innovate use of olive oil in cocktails and food.
