Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Fill a mixing glass with 1 cup ice cubes. Pour in 1 oz gin, 1 oz Campari, and 1 oz sweet vermouth.

  2. Step 2

    Stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds until well chilled and diluted, feeling the outside of the glass turn cold.

  3. Step 3

    Place a large ice cube or a few fresh ice cubes in a rocks glass. Strain the cocktail over the fresh ice.

  4. Step 4

    Garnish with 1 orange slice, expressing the oils over the drink by giving the peel a twist, then drop it in.

  5. Step 5

    Serve immediately and enjoy your perfectly balanced Negroni.
