Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Begin by chilling a rocks glass by filling it with ice water. Set it aside while you prepare the cocktail.

    Combine Ingredients

    In a mixing glass or cocktail shaker, combine 1 oz of gin, 1 oz of sweet vermouth, and 1 oz of Campari.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Add about a cup of ice to the mixing glass or shaker to chill the mixture.

  4. 4

    Stir the Cocktail

    Using a bar spoon or a long spoon, stir the mixture for about 20-30 seconds until well chilled.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Glass

    Discard the ice water from the chilled rocks glass and strain the cocktail mixture into the glass.

  6. 6

    Garnish

    Garnish with a slice of orange peel. You can express the oils from the peel by gently twisting it over the drink before placing it in the glass.
