Classic Negroni

Method

Classic Negroni

1

Chill glass

Place an Old Fashioned (rocks) glass in the freezer for a few minutes or fill it with ice and cold water to chill while you prepare the cocktail.

2

Add spirits

In a mixing glass or shaker filled about two-thirds with ice, pour 1 oz gin, 1 oz Campari, and 1 oz sweet red vermouth.

3

Stir and dilute

Using a bar spoon, stir the mixture briskly for 20–30 seconds (about 20–30 full turns) until well chilled and slightly diluted. Aim for a cold, clear, slightly viscous texture.

4

Prepare glass and strain

Discard the chilling ice/water from the Old Fashioned glass. Add one or two large ice cubes to the glass, then strain the stirred cocktail into the glass over the ice.

5

Express and garnish

Hold a fresh piece of orange peel with the exterior facing down over the glass and give it a sharp twist to express the oils onto the drink. Optionally rub the peel around the rim, then drop the peel into the glass as garnish.

6

Serve immediately. The Negroni is balanced bitter, sweet, and botanical — sip slowly.
