Original Cocktail: the Dimmitazza
The main ingredient in this fruity, refreshing, and extremely brunch-appropriate cocktail is a spirit called Dimmi Liquore di Milano. Floral with a big hit of stonefruit, Dimmi is a blend of neutral grain spirit (basically a wheat vodka) and Nebbiolo grappa. It's infused with a variety of botanicals including wormwood, vanilla and rhubarb. At 35% this is a versatile spirit to play around with in low alcohol cocktails, but it's also pleasant served chilled on its own.
