Shakerato with Baileys or nothing!! 😆 anyways I love that Napoli in bocca cookbook, it looks low those books you find in mercatini…did you purchase it new?? I’m going to look for it!

Haha! When we finally meet up, that’s what we’ll drink - even if it’s January! 😜 I bought it used. So hard to find these editions!!

I think I’d add a little cream and Kahlúa to that Shakerato! The red pesto really sounds amazing. I’m grateful for the cooking ideas, though your accounts of Northern Italy make me more than a bit jealous!🤗

And that shakerato would be better for your additions, Ruth! But the rainy deluge here in N Italy can't be making you jealous, can it? ;-)

I don’t know, Lolly! It’s been steamy hot here, even at the beach where it’s usually cool. I’d welcome some rain—though perhaps not a deluge!😊

I have several of the "In Bocca" cookbooks... I adore them.

Love to hear this! I've been eyeing several for my purchase. Do you recommend any of the ones you have, Judy?

This recipe looks SO delicious, and I am also kicking myself for not ordering a shakerato while I was in Italy!!! 😭 It’s my mom’s favorite on a hot day in Venice!
