Negroni

The Negroni cocktail is an iconic and bittersweet Italian classic. Combining gin, Campari, and sweet vermouth in equal parts, it creates a perfectly balanced, bold, and aromatic concoction. Stirred with ice and strained into a glass over a large ice cube, the result is a rich and ruby-red beverage with a delightfully complex profile. Garnished with a fresh orange peel, the Negroni is a timeless choice for those who appreciate a sophisticated and spirit-forward cocktail experience.
