The Sicilian is the specialty drink most frequently requested by first-time visitors to the Cafe Gutenberg, a coffee bar, restaurant and wine lounge in Richmond, Va. "It evolved from a concept of using fresh ingredients, even in beverages," says the cafe's general manager, Stephanie Hagen. "It's very European, too, a drink that celebrates the weekend, which should be a long, relaxing break from work." The cafe offers four beverages featuring Cava, a distinctly Spanish sparkling white wine, and all sell well at weekend brunch.

2 parts Cava, Spanish sparkling wine
1 part fresh-squeezed blood orange juice

"It's nothing fancy," says Hagen, "just pour it into a champagne glass and serve."
