Cynar, Cocchi & Plymouth
Cynar, without Campari
Plymouth and Cocchi stay, with twice the Cynar and no Campari, for a Negroni centred on the artichoke bitter.
Campari keeps the red line while Cynar adds the shade.
Checking your Shelf…
Stir with ice, then strain over fresh ice.
One large fresh cube.
Rocks glass.
Orange peel.
Serve very cold and properly diluted.
Proper dilution means enough water from melting ice to soften the alcohol without making the drink taste thin. Stir with ice and taste as you go: the drink should be cold, with less alcohol burn and plenty of flavour. Timing varies with your ice.
Measure the two bitters cleanly. The split only works if neither one takes over.
