What’s your favorite Basta Pasta cocktail?
The end of a long week and the beginning of a long weekend calls for a good drink! If you’re planning to enjoy a Labor Day weekend meal at one of our locations, consider giving our specialty cocktail list a try. Discover how to pair spirits with dinner like a true expert.
Sangria
A sweet blend of Italian liqueurs, fresh fruit, and red wine, Sangria can complement almost every dish. However, it truly shines when paired with a light and flavorful seafood dish. From delicious, specialty crab cakes to an order of shrimp linguine, Sangria and seafood make a perfect pair.
Moscow Mule
The spicy and refreshing combination of ginger beer, lime juice, and vodka is as simple as it is delicious. It pairs best with robust Italian meals like sausage fettuccine or veal meatball spaghetti. Enjoy each bite between sips of this fizzy, eye-opening cocktail.
Pomegranate Mule
This tart twist on a Moscow mule is made with Raspberry Stoli vodka, pomegranate liqueur, and lime. Enjoy with a crisp, crunchy salad such as a Caesar salad topped with a perfectly cooked steak.
Gin & Tonic
A classic cocktail, the gin and tonic can only be better if you pair it with delicious food! Enjoy your gin and tonic with a delicate and creative appetizer to start dinner off on the right foot. From a mozzarella caprese to a fig and goat cheese platter, the gin and tonic is a meal’s best friend.
Wine
It might not be a cocktail, but it always pairs well with dinner at Basta Pasta. Choose from our vast wine selection, or ask a server for a recommendation. From bubbly whites to deep, oaky reds, you’re sure to find a vino that suits your palate.
