Ingredients

  • 50ml Campari
  • 50ml gin
  • 50ml vermouth rosso
  • 2 slices of orange, to serve

Step by step

  1. Take 2 short tumblers, and mix together 25ml Campari, 25ml gin and 25ml vermouth rosso in each one.
  2. Split a large handful of ice between the glasses, stir well, and garnish each drink with an orange slice. Serve.
    Tip
    The twists:

    Aperol Negroni
    For a lighter, less bitter drink, swap the Campari for 50ml of another popular Italian aperitif, Aperol.

    Rosemary Negroni
    Add 2 sprigs of rosemary to each glass with the spirits. Bash with a spoon to release flavour before adding the ice and orange.

    Negroni Sbagliato 
    Meaning a ‘messed-up Negroni’, this fizzy version calls for the gin to be swapped for 50ml Prosecco.
