Livorno Punch

Manuel Di Cecco | Rome, Italy

Italy has its very own punch: ponce alla Livornese. But unlike traditional punch, Livorno Punch swaps the tea element for coffee, specifically espresso, resulting in a bolder formula that feels right at home alongside the canon of modern coffee cocktails, from caffè corretto to Espresso Martinis.
