Classic Negroni

Gin-forward Beefeater, Campari & Cocchi

At a glance

Same bottles as the baseline, more gin. Drier and cleaner, less led by the vermouth.

Ratio1.5:1:1

Temperature and dilution

Serve very cold and properly diluted.

What does properly diluted mean?

Stir until the glass is properly cold and the drink tastes joined rather than hot and separate. Timing varies with the ice.

A note on making

The extra gin needs enough dilution to settle into the bitter and vermouth.

Set it straight against the equal-parts Beefeater version. Same three ingredients, different balance.
