Totally off-topic but Corretto is the Italian word for a coffee with some liquor added, usually grappa (but it can be cognac, whisky etc). It also means "right"

Totally off-topic but Corretto is the Italian word for a coffee with some liquor added, usually grappa (but it can be cognac, whisky etc). It also means "right" or "correct".

- jeffbee 5y agoCornetto is a sort of Italian croissant. You could conceivably have a Caffé corretto and a cornetto for breakfast ;-)

- barbazoo 5y agoI miss Cornetto! The texture of the cream and the chocolatey bits at the top bring up very fond childhood memories. Also some of them IIRC have a solid chocolate bottom in the cone.
