You haven’t missed that it’s World Aperitivo Day tomorrow, have you..? We’re incredibly proud that Gnista’s founder, Erika Eklundh, has been invited as a global delegate to the official Milan aperitivo festival. Only 15 delegates worldwide were selected to explore the history, culture, and future of the iconic Italian aperitivo.

And guess where our Floral Wormwood fits into all of this? 😏
Even in Italy — the home of bitter aperitivos, people are embracing high-quality non-alcoholic options. Turns out, even Italians want bold, complex flavours… and yes, they’re also pregnant sometimes.

This moment highlights exactly why Gnista exists: to create alcohol-free spirits that pair beautifully with cultural rituals, food, and social moments — including the legendary aperitivo hour.
