Method
Cocktail
Chill glass
Place an old fashioned glass (or rocks glass) in the freezer for a few minutes or fill it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail to chill the glass.
Measure and pour
Add 2 oz soju, 1 oz Campari, and 1 oz sweet vermouth into a mixing glass or cocktail shaker filled partway with ice.
Stir and dilute
Stir the mixture gently for 20–30 seconds (about 15–20 full strokes) until well chilled and slightly diluted. If you prefer a slightly lighter drink, stir up to 40 seconds.
Prepare glass
Discard the ice water from the chilled rocks glass (if used) and add a large ice cube or fresh ice to the glass.
Strain
Strain the stirred cocktail into the prepared glass over the fresh ice.
Garnish
Express the orange peel by holding it over the drink and giving it a firm twist to release oils, then rub the peel on the rim and drop it into the glass as garnish.
Serve
Serve immediately. Sip slowly to enjoy the bittersweet balance of the Campari and vermouth softened by the clean, lower-proof soju.
