"How to Make a Negroni"

The Negroni is as classic a cocktail as it gets. While most of the cocktails we featured have their origin in the USA, this was invented in 1919 in Florence, where Count Camillo Negroni suggested to Fosco Scarselli, the bartender at the Hotel Baglioni in Florence, that he add gin to his Americano, a mild combination of Campari, sweet vermouth and soda. These days the Negroni is seeing a revival of sorts, which makes sense because it's a great drink to have as an aperitif.


INGREDIENTS:

3cl Gin
3cl Red Vermouth
3cl Campari
small dash orange bitter

RECIPE:

Mix gin, vermouth and campari and stir on ice. Pour in tumbler and decorate with a lemon or orange peel.

With many thanks to the great people at Bar Cel, Torstrasse 218, Berlin.
