Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Begin by chilling your cocktail glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and letting it sit while you prepare the cocktail.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, combine 1 cup of gin, 1 cup of sweet vermouth, and 1 cup of Campari.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Fill the mixing glass with ice cubes (about 1 cup or to taste) to chill the mixture thoroughly.

  4. 4

    Stir the Mixture

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

  5. 5

    Prepare the Glass

    Empty the ice water from your chilled cocktail glass, ensuring it’s ready to receive the drink.

  6. 6

    Strain the Cocktail

    Using a strainer, pour the chilled Negroni mixture into the prepared glass.

  7. 7

    Garnish

    Twist a piece of orange peel over the drink to release its oils, then place it in the glass as a garnish.
