Aperitif time is an occasion to which attention and care must be devoted, without giving up a touch of originality

Finding the right balance between very simple ingredients and more sophisticated proposals, both for drinks and appetisers, is the best way to organise it in the best possible way and not to be caught unprepared even when it has to be prepared in a short time.

Lock-Eat food jars and juice jars can be of great help both for storing the specialities to be served during the aperitif, and for serving the preparations and drinks in an unusual way, as well as for preparing practical and elegant single-portions.

A good Prosecco, a rosé wine, a light red, beer or cocktails to prepare at home, for example, can be a good idea to accompany some non-alcoholic offerings: fruit or vegetable extracts or centrifuged juices or, especially in hot weather, waters flavoured with citrus fruits and herbs, storing and serving them in Lock-Eat juice jars, even in small sizes.

The food jars are also perfect for storing the many delicacies to be prepared with the vegetables available during the warm season, to have them available all year round. The Lock-Eat collection, in fact, is primarily designed for safe food storage, in compliance with the different recipe techniques: e.g. vacuum-packed, pickled, pickled or salted. The same applies to mustards and jams, which are excellent served with fresh or mature cheeses, playing with combinations according to their characteristics.

In the smaller formats, food jars can be used to serve not only jams and preserves, but also herb tomini or delicate mousses, which can be prepared in minutes and customised with imagination using a cream cheese as a base.

A good choice of breadsticks and fragrant crackers and a selection of dried fruits - walnuts, almonds, pistachios and hazelnuts - can complete the offer.
