Negroni
This ruby-red Italian charmer pops up everywhere these days, after having made a comeback in 2015.
Instructions
Although the Negroni may look sweet, it’s anything but – its strong, bitter tones that Negroni afficionados love so much dominate the cocktail; no syrup here masking anything. The latest version of how the cocktail was invented is that it originated in Caffe Casoni in Florence, Italy in 1919. Legend has it that Count Camillo Negroni asked his friend, barman Forsco Scarselli, to strengthen his favorite cocktail – the Americano – by replacing the soda water with gin.
Drink it before a good meal, not only because it is the very definition of an Aperitivo cocktail, but because the gin, vermouth and bitters create a combination that would have floored even Henry VIII.
Method: stir with ice and strain into a short drink glass over ice cubes
Garnish: orange zest
Glass: short drink
Ingredients
30 ml gin
30 ml campari
30 ml sweet vermouth.
