November: Negroni

The Negroni is a bold, bittersweet classic cocktail that perfectly balances herbal gin, rich vermouth, and the signature bitter punch of Campari. It is a sophisticated sip for any time you want to impress.

Ingredients:

• 5ml preferred gin

• 25ml sweet vermouth

• 25ml Campari

• Expressed orange peel

• Ice

Instructions:

1. Fill a mixing glass with ice.

2. Pour in 5ml gin, 25ml sweet vermouth, and 25ml Campari.

3. Stir gently until well chilled.

4. Strain into a rocks glass filled with fresh ice.

5. Express an orange peel over the glass to release the oils, then drop it in as garnish.

Tips:

• Stir, don’t shake — Gentle stirring chills and dilutes without bruising the botanicals in the gin.

• Fresh orange peel — Expressing the oils adds a fragrant citrus brightness that lifts the drink.
