🍋 Signature Cocktail Spotlight 🍋

One of six handcrafted signature cocktails at Polpette 71, our House-Made Limoncello Cocktail is sunshine in a glass.

Made with citron vodka, our house-made limoncello, fresh lemon juice, and a few closely guarded secrets, it's bright, refreshing, and dangerously easy to love.

Can we tell you exactly how we make it?

Absolutely not. 🤫

Some family recipes are meant to stay in the family.

Join us on the Upper West Side and taste the magic for yourself.

Salute! 🍋🍸☀️
