Currently sipping on a Paloma:

  • 1.5 oz Tequila (blanco)
  • .5oz lime juice
  • 4 oz Grapefruit soda (Jarritos today)
  • Pinch of salt

By far, Negroni.

1/3 dark vermouth 1/3 Campari 1/3 gin

Add to a low and wide glass with a fair amount of ice. Smoked rosemary and orange peel for extra infusion of flavour and stir.

You can experiment with the brands and types of vermouth and gin but Campari stays.

Replace the gin with bourbon and it becomes a boulivardier! That’s one of my favorites.

You can have my bottle of campari, I LOVE gin but a Negroni? Nah, that shit is like drinking cough medicine from the 1800s sans heroin.

My house does a lot of Negroni variations. I will often swap the Campari for Ramazzotti or Cappelletti to dial down the bitterness and add some herbal notes. Also works great as a Boulevardier or with mezcal.
