The classic Negroni is a Gin, Campari and sweet Vermouth based cocktail. When built correctly, it delivers the perfect bittersweet balance. It’s this bittersweet balance that gives the cocktail its depth and character.
By adding 25ml of LOS CAFETEROS coffee liqueur to the mix, you get a sophisticated (slightly smoother), subtly caffeinated version.
Perfect for a summer afternoon treat or perhaps, before a meal.
What you’ll need…
- 25ml Hill Billy Dry Gin
- 20ml Campari
- 25ml LOS CAFETEROS coffee liqueur
- 25ml Sweet Vermouth
- Orange zest twist for the garnish
Glassware – Ideally and old fashioned glass or a rocks glass.
How you build it…
- In a mixing glass filled with ice, add the Dry Gin, Campari, LOS CAFETEROS and sweet vermouth. Gently stir until chilled.
- Strain into an old fashioned glass and add one large ice cube.
- Express an orange twist over the drink and rub it around the rim before dropping it into the glass (or peg it to the side of the glass).
