THE CONCEPT “DRY JANUARY can be fun”

ADRIATICO — the new generation amaretto — following the launch of its new ADRIATICO ZERO N/A version of its roasted and salted almonds amaretto, is pushing the boundaries of the N/A cocktail creations with a modern and mindful twist. Copenhagen, home of the most talented culinary, mixology, design & architecture wizards is definitely the best location to host and test an innovative concept. We invite the best Danish-based bartenders to join the ADRIATICO “ART OF ZERO" Challenge and craft the future of non-alcoholic mixology.

 

YOUR MISSION

Let your recipe celebrate the ADRIATICO philosophy:

- Innovation : Being the only almond milk liqueur on the market and first to add sea salt in a premium liqueur, make sure to showcase your innovation & creativity.

- Craftsmanship : Driven by the Italian “know-how” and craft tradition, make sure your presentation is entertaining and inspired by your own craft and cocktail’s storytelling.

- Local Terroir : ADRIATICO is based on native almonds from the Apulian region, so feel free to source local sustainable ingredients from Denmark to create your recipe.
