Seasonal sips take a unique turn at The Americano, Food Network star and celebrity chef Scott Conant’s Italian-inspired steakhouse in North Scottsdale.
Its new summer menu is not only innovative but offers a nod to pop culture. For example, the Taylor Swift-inspired Miss Americana. (Tip: The Americano’s sister restaurant, Mora Italian, has The Heartbreak Prince cocktail so Swifties are able to get a taste of the beloved song “Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince”!)
The new offerings feature a variety of spirits, including mezcal, white vermouth, rum, and gin, and include the following.
- April Showers: Diega Rosa Gin, Ramazzotti Rosato, Genepy, Starlino, Cocchi Rosa, Lemon & Rhubarb Bitters ($18)
- Miss Americana: Diplomatico Rum, Cachaça, Giffared Passion Fruit, Hibiscus, Lime ($18)
- Café Fumoso: Dos Hombres Mezcal, Cascara Liqueur, Espresso, Molé Bitters ($18)
- Fiore Di Vitae: Salvadoreno Coffee Rum, Bacardi, Pomegranate, Lavender, Primitivo, Flores Bitters ($17)

- Summer Lovin’: Chamomile Grappa, Chareau Aloe, Yuzuri, Grapefruit ($17)
- Live and Let Thai: Thai Tea infused Vodka, Velvet Falernum, Chocolate Spice Bitters, Pandan, Blood Orange, Prosecco ($18)

Its contemporary supper club-style dining space features intimate, crescent-shaped booths; leather chairs; and butcher-block tables, providing guests with front-row seats to the open kitchen and wood-fired grill where Conant’s team puts on a nightly display.
