Thursday Evening Cocktail: The Negroni

The beauty of a Negroni is in its simplicity. With just three ingredients - campari, gin, and sweet vermouth, all poured in equal parts, it doesn’t get much easier than this. Provided you’ve got the necessary components, stick with the ratio, and resist a mixologist’s urge to get creative.

The Negroni doesn’t exactly lend itself to quick drinking. It’s the sort of Thursday evening cocktail to be enjoyed while pondering over the past week. For the uninitiated, its bitterness can be an acquired taste - all the more reason to start now.

For 1 Drink

1 ounce (30 ml) Campari
1 ounce (30 ml) Gin
1 ounce (30 ml) Sweet Vermouth
Orange slice

Stir Campari, Gin, and Sweet Vermouth in a chilled shaker. Pour over ice into a rocks glass. Garnish with orange.
