The Negroni – True Italian Spirit
The Negroni was born in Florence, Italy in 1919 when Count Camillo Negroni asked his bartender to stiffen his Americano cocktail by swapping soda water for gin. Bold move, Count! It is considered the most Italian of cocktails—equal parts bitter (Campari), sweet (vermouth), and strong (gin)—a balance that mirrors Italian dining: a little bitter, a little sweet, always stylish.
