Not only the drink, the whole vermut ritual, which seemed old fashioned a few years ago, has come back to stay. Catalonia has a tradition of good vermut, which is aromatised wine, and l<i>\u2019<strong>hora del vermut <\/strong><\/i>(vermouth time) \u00a0usually takes place sometime before lunch. In this ritual you typically eat some tapas and drink something (vermouth, beer, wine..)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><i><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Vermouth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Vermut<\/a><\/i> is served with ice and usually a slice of orange (at least the red one). Some places may skip the orange thing or replace it with lemon though. But remember, <strong>Martini<\/strong> is not vermut, it\u2019s a cocktail based on vermouth and other alcoholic drinks and ingredients, we\u2019re talking about the real thing here! From <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ShBarcelona<\/a> we offer a selection of good places to enjoy the trendy drink accompanied with good food.
