About this ebook
Over 30 classic recipes and modern twists for Italy's most iconic cocktail, the Negroni.
The Negroni has been a favourite with discerning cocktail drinkers for over a century but has perhaps never been as popular as it is today. What started off as a simple, equal-parts, three-ingredient cocktail (campari, gin, vermouth) has become a global sensation. Included here are recipes for classic Negronis from straight-up over ice to a sparkling aperitivo spritz. This basic formula is then played with in endless ways with Negronis designed for different seasons; bright and citrusy summer versions; cosier, spiced winter drinks; and celebratory cocktails for special occasions. These exciting variations make use of both dry, sweet and aged vermouths, along with ports and sherries, and some truly experimental non-gin negronis (made using bourbon, rum or even mezcal) really open up the playing field!

Negroni - David T Smith
INTRODUCTION
When it comes to cocktails, there can be beauty in a simple recipe, but that is also where controversy lies: there is a wide array of arguments over the correct ratios to use and how to garnish a Martini or a Gin & Tonic. Another such cocktail is the Negroni. On the face of it, the Negroni is an equal parts mix of gin, vermouth and bitters (most typically Campari), but beneath that bright red surface lies a whole world of delights to explore and enjoy.
This book is designed to help you discover some of the joys of the Negroni from reasonably classic variations to the 21st century’s White Negroni; these are followed by some variations using spirits other than gin in the experimental section and – finally – some seasonal treats, providing a Negroni for every occasion.
