Ordering gelato in Italy? Here’s how to do it like a pro! 🇮🇹🍨
✨ First, make sure it’s authentic! ✨
✅ Natural colors – Banana should be pale (not bright yellow), pistachio should be earthy green (not neon).
✅ Stored in metal tins – The best gelato is often kept in covered metal containers, not piled high in artificial-looking mounds.
✅ Seasonal flavors – Fresh fruit flavors should reflect the season—no strawberry in winter!
🍦 Now, how to order like an Italian:
1️⃣ Pick your size – “Piccolo” (small), “medio” (medium), or “grande” (large). Even small cups usually allow multiple flavors!
2️⃣ Choose your flavors – Ask “Un assaggio?” (a taste?) if you need help deciding. Classics like pistachio, stracciatella, and nocciola never disappoint.
3️⃣ Cup or cone? – “Coppa” (cup) or “cono” (cone)? Want to go all out? Ask “Con panna?” for fresh whipped cream on top!
4️⃣ Pay first at some shops – In traditional gelaterias, you might pay at the register before ordering at the counter.
5️⃣ Enjoy like an Italian – Stroll, savor, and resist the urge to rush! 🇮🇹✨

Traveling with my husband is always an adventure, especially when we lean into spur-of-the-moment decisions. Albania wasn’t even on our radar, but when we saw super cheap flights and realized it’s just an hour from Naples, we couldn’t resist.
We love exploring places that are a little off the beaten path, and Albania delivered in the best way—beautiful landscapes, rich history, and that feeling of discovering somewhere not everyone has been.
Sometimes the best trips aren’t the ones you plan forever—they’re the ones you just go for.
Thanks for doing life with me @dante.coppock ❤️

A short walk from the city center in Sorrento is this little shop and lemon grove. You can learn how to make your own limoncello and tour the factory. Taste some of the delicious liquor including a licorice one. Explore the little lemon grove in the back of the shop and end your experience buying some delicious lemony treats and eating some gelato 🍧 🍋 We loved it there! #sorrento #italy #traveladvisor #travel #travelagent #lemon #limoncello #lemonfarm #europe #explore #adventure #experience
