Word for a small taste of drink












6















My Italian family members will use a word that sounds like "spudatza" to refer to a small taste of a drink.



"Would you like to try this wine?"



"Just a spudatza"



What word is this?

I think your Italian family members are saying sputazza which is a word coming from Sicilian dialect and it literally means sputo (spit), and also saliva (saliva, spittle).



Obviously the meaning is what you guessed: a colloquial form to indicate a small taste of drink.
