I too have a comment for garbiedog: Did you happen to notice that not only is she Italian, her show is called Everyday Italian? If she is an idiot, then why watch her show or try her recipes? And I would like to think that somebody who put themself through the Cordon Bleu Culinary School in France would have more culinary knowledge than a Las Vegas housewife. Just saying.

I personally wouldn't care for this drink because I don't like coffee liquor. But I would like to comment on 'garbiedog's assertion that prosecco is "awful" and "sickenly sweet." Garbiedog, I think you are confusing prosecco with asti spumante. Both are sparking wine but prosecco is always a very dry wine.... It may not be your cup of tea, but it is never sweet. And EVERY bottle of prosecco I have ever tried is far better than Korbel.

I don't know why she insists on using prosecco ALL the time...just because she's Italian, and it's an Italian ingredient? Prosecco is awful. It's extremely sweet, almost sickningly sweet, which is a sign of bad quality. Even Korbel is better than any prosecco I've ever tried. Giada's an idiot. She's a one-trick pony with no real culinary knowledge.
