Tocca Cocktails


 Tocca Candles

 Inspiration, Italian Riviera

Summer Cocktails

Named for the Italian word for “touch”  it combines the best of the romantic and exotic. Unabashedly feminine with an edge, TOCCA evokes the European sophisticate on holiday. Inspired by travels, TOCCA brings a worldly playfulness to its  product. We were inspired as well !! Here are some cocktail recipes inspired by the TOCCA collection. All cocktails are ONE serving.
