A Strawberry Liqueur That Tastes Like Strawberries
Fragola means strawberry, and this is the honest version: juice squeezed from organically grown Italian strawberries, cane sugar, spirit — no artificial colors, no candy-red flavoring. The result is a velvety strawberry in every drop, in the brand's own words: ripe berry with creamy notes, a buttery mouthfeel, pristine and true to the fruit. At 17% ABV it drinks like a proper liqueur rather than a syrup — chilled neat, in soda or tonic over ice, or over ice cream where it behaves like the world's best strawberry sauce. One naming note for shoppers: 24%/48-proof "Fragola" bottles from other brands (Toschi, Fradoli) are different products — this is Vergnano's 17% organic expression. Compare the house's fruit range in the liqueur collection, all from Vergnano.
