Liquore Strega is an Italian herbal liqueur from Benevento, dating back to 1860. It is made with about 70 botanicals, including saffron, mint, and fennel, giving it a bright yellow color and complex aromatic profile. Traditionally, it has been used as a digestif and in desserts. Its unique blend makes it both sweet and herbal, lending itself well to creative cocktails. Strega has a high alcohol content, so a little goes a long way. Store in a cool, dark place to maintain its aromatic qualities.
Sweet, herbal, slightly spicy.
Sip neat as a digestif or mix into sours, highballs, and herbal cocktails. Can also enhance whiskey or gin-based drinks for added complexity.
