The Grapefruit “Mock-Jito” at Picazzo’s includes fresh mint, lime juice, and simple syrup, combined with Fever-Tree Ruby Red Grapefruit soda and a splash of sparkling water (submitted photo).
For those looking for a healthier way to imbibe, Picazzo’s Healthy Italian Kitchen has introduced a selection of new drinks and an expanded mocktail menu with two new non-alcoholic sips. During the eatery’s Healthy Hour, offered daily from 3 to 6 p.m., guests can enjoy $3 off all mocktails and $6 off all cocktails, along with specials on select pizzas and appetizers.
New non-alcoholic offerings include the white grape cooler, with Fre non-alcoholic pinot grigio with peach puree, pineapple tidbits, and orange juice, finished with a splash of soda and an orange wheel garnish, and the grapefruit “Mock-Jito,” with fresh mint, lime juice, and simple syrup, combined with Fever-Tree Ruby Red Grapefruit soda and a splash of sparkling water, then garnished with a mint sprig and lime wheel for a bright, refreshing finish.
Picazzo’s fusion approach to a modern-Italian cuisine incorporates the flavors of Asian, Mediterranean and Mexican ingredients into its menu. In Phoenix, visit Picazzo’s at 4669 E. Cactus Road. Visit www.picazzos.com for details.
