Peroni Nastro Azzurro and Antoni Porowski Bring A Taste of Italian Style to Canadians This Summer

From the perfect pour to elevated pizza nights and aperitivo, Antoni and Peroni Nastro Azzurro bring la dolce vita to Canadians with effortless Italian style all summer long

TORONTO, May 7, 2026 /CNW/ - As Canadians gear up for a summer of hosting, Peroni Nastro Azzurro, the number one premium Italian beer in the world, partners with Canadian author, TV personality, and food expert Antoni Porowski to bring a taste of Italian style home. Rooted in Italy's food-first culture, the collaboration celebrates a more intentional way of hosting, where everyday moments from aperitivo to pizza night with friends are effortlessly elevated with premium ingredients, thoughtful details and a perfectly chilled Peroni Nastro Azzurro.

Filmed in the heart of Milan and inspired by Italian living, the series follows Antoni as he brings this approach to life–from shopping local markets for fresh ingredients to creating effortlessly stylish gatherings at home. Along the way, he takes Canadians on a journey, demonstrating how simplicity, quality and attention to detail, from the perfect pour of Peroni Nastro Azzurro to pizza and aperitivo, can transform everyday occasions into elevated experiences.

"Partnering with Peroni Nastro Azzurro felt like a natural extension of my love for Italian food and my travels throughout Italy," says Antoni Porowski. "Those experiences have shaped how I approach cooking and hosting — in a way that's intentional yet effortless. Whether I'm making pizza at home or hosting an aperitivo with friends, Peroni Nastro Azzurro is my go-to pairing; it transforms everyday moments into something a little bit more stylish."

Launching today on Peroni Canada's Instagram channel, @peroni_ca, the series begins with the art of the perfect pour of a crisp, refreshing, and premium Peroni Nastro Azzurro. Followed by episodes that explore Italian-inspired rituals including aperitivo, elevating at-home pizza nights with friends, and highlighting how great hosting goes beyond food and drink to include atmosphere, setting, and attention to detail.

In an episode to launch ahead of the Canadian Grand Prix, Antoni is joined by global Peroni Nastro Azzurro 0.0% ambassador Charles Leclerc. Drawing inspiration from their travels in Italy, the pair craft a pizza using premium ingredients, celebrating the superior pairing: pizza and Peroni Nastro Azzurro.
