Negroni cocktail in a rocks glass — Campari

Negroni Cocktail Recipe

gin, campari, sweet vermouth

History

In Florence in 1919, Fosco Scarselli put gin in Count Camillo Negroni's Americano. Stir equal parts gin, Campari, and sweet vermouth, and finish with an orange peel. On a home bar, one large cube is enough. If gin, Campari, and sweet vermouth are already in the pantry, stir this before you buy another bottle.
