Made it with Campari, pleasantly bitter and tasty.

Modified because I only had Bruto Americano on hand for a Bitter Italian Red, which has an amplified woodsy finish. Lowered that to 15 mL, added 7.5 mL of dry curacao to reinforce the orange notes without too much sweetness, and threw in a couple of drops of saline solution. Very pleased with the result, even if it's Sharon's cousin :-D

An excellent low-ABV beverage. I had it with Cocchi Dopo Teatro. Recommended.
