Behind the Drink

The Bicicletta segment is still being mixed. Until the video arrives, get to know the drink and the easygoing aperitivo spirit behind it.

Video Coming Soon The Bicicletta segment will appear here after this week’s show.

“Bittersweet, bubbly, and built for the ride.”

The Bicicletta combines dry white wine and Campari, then stretches everything with chilled club soda for a bright red aperitivo that stays crisp, refreshing, and easy to sip.

Served over plenty of ice with two orange wheels, it brings bold citrus and herbal bitterness without weighing down the evening—the perfect kind of drink for a long, relaxed stop at the JNC bar.
