Negroni Cocktail Recipe
Created in the 1910s in Florence, Italy, for Count Camillo Negroni, who requested a stronger Americano cocktail. This is a spirit-forward cocktail that is sharp and has an intense, beautifully balanced flavor profile. It is the perfect blend of bitter (from the Campari), sweet (from the vermouth), and aromatic/botanical (from the gin).
