Hi, hello. I'm Carol--the human behind Lil' Aperitivo.

This whole thing started as an homage to the humble amaro. Who knew 60-80 proof could taste so good? Certainly not me in my 20s. Now that I'm older, I love spending twice as much $$ to get a little buzz, as long as it's a little spicy and a lot aesthetic. Hence, I'm selling some original designs inspired by the classics because I love them, but also because ~capitalism~

I like my art like I like a drink with friends—warm, maybe a little loud, probably messy (but who cares), and preferably on the affordable side. It's super important to me to make art you can actually afford, that still feels special. I do all the printing myself in small batches, usually while talking to myself or yelling at paper. Every piece is hand-made in one way or another and packed with care (and probably a dog hair or two. Sorry. I’m doing my best).

Thanks for being here. Seriously. Every order helps me keep doing this thing, and I’m extremely grateful.

Cheers,
Caroline 🍸
