Italian cocktails like the Aperol Spritz, Bellini, and Negroni pair well with pizza. These drinks complement the flavors of classic Italian dishes with their refreshing and sometimes slightly bitter notes.
Can beer also be a good pairing with Italian pizza?
Yes, beer is a classic pairing with pizza. Light lagers, ales, and pilsners help cut through the richness of the cheese and toppings, making them a great choice to enjoy with a pizza.

How does red wine pair with pizza?
Red wine, particularly lighter varieties like Chianti or Barbera, pairs wonderfully with pizza. The acidity of the wine complements the tomato sauce, while its tannins balance the fats in the cheese and meats.
