Ingredients
- 1 oz gin
- 1 oz Campari
- 1 oz sweet vermouth
- orange peel or orange slice
- ice
Instructions
- Start by mixing equal parts gin, sweet vermouth, and Campari in a large mixing glass.
- Using a spoon, gently stir the ingredients together. This is important! It’s not recommended to shake a negroni in a mixer with ice, as the ice will dilute the drink.
- Add ice to a glass, and pour the mixed negroni into the glass. (Note - if you’re making a large batch of this cocktail, be sure to give it another stir after you add it to the individual glasses to ensure it’s well mixed.)
- Garnish the glasses with an orange peel or a slice of orange to bring out the citrus notes in the campari.
- Serve immediately, or store the mixed negroni in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Notes
- The classic Negroni drink should be stirred, NOT shaken, then poured over ice. Shaking the drink in ice will dilute the flavor.
- To make a large batch, increase the recipe ingredients and stir everything together in a large pitcher. Just be sure to stir the individual drink once you pour it over ice to ensure the ingredients are well combined.
