Description from the author:
Aperitif is one of the main traditions of Florence and northern Italy. They gather for an aperitif when they don't want to run away to dinner right after work. It is such a break, time for yourself and between work and home, the opportunity to meet friends and have a snack. It is believed that it was invented by Catherine de 'Medici: according to legend, before receptions and dinners, she served her guests wine with spices. In general, there are many legends about the origin of this tradition, but we like it the most.
