I work in an Italian wine bar and whenever possible, I try to incorporate wine/Italian Liqueurs into my drinks whenever possible. I also have a huge love for all things tropical/tiki. The inspiration for this drink is the Humuhumunukunukuapuaa (Reef Triggerfish). So yeah, the state fish of Hawaii translated into what very well may be the national fish of Italy? Sure. Why not?
