Description:
The Negroni is one of the great Italian aperitifs and an official International Bartenders Association cocktail. The most common story links its creation to Florence and Count Camillo Negroni in the early 20th century. It is a bitter-sweet, full-bodied, instantly recognizable equal-parts cocktail. Gin gives it a dry base, Campari brings the signature bitterness, and vermouth ties the flavor together with herbal sweetness.
