The Negroni is a classic Italian cocktail that is made from equal parts gin, Campari, and sweet vermouth. The drink has been around for over a hundred years and is a popular choice for those looking for a strong, bittersweet cocktail. The classic Negroni is served over ice in an old-fashioned glass and garnished with an orange peel. The Negroni is believed to have originated in Florence, Italy in the early 1900s when Count Camillo Negroni asked a bartender to replace the soda in his Americano cocktail with gin. The bartender obliged and the Negroni was born. The Negroni has become a popular choice for those looking for a strong and complex cocktail. The combination of gin, Campari, and sweet vermouth creates a cocktail that is simultaneously bitter, sweet, and full-bodied. The drink is often served with an orange peel as a garnish to enhance the flavor of the cocktail. The Negroni is a versatile cocktail that can be enjoyed as an aperitif, as a pre-dinner drink, or as an after-dinner digestif.
