The Sbagliato was born from a happy accident at Bar Basso in Milan in 1972. Bartender Mirko Stocchetto mistakenly reached for Prosecco instead of gin while making a Negroni, creating what translates to "the mistaken one" in Italian. The drink remained a local favorite for decades before going viral on social media in 2022, introducing a new generation to this effervescent aperitivo.
