The fruit in the bottle
Sanpellegrino Chino uses chinotto extract from Sicilian fruit. That is a producer’s recipe, not a rule that every chinotto is pressed juice or uses Ligurian fruit.
At the table
Try it with fried fish, a match suggested by Sanpellegrino. Serve chilled; the producer’s English and Italian pages suggest different temperatures and citrus garnishes, so there is no single rule to follow.
