Who would have thought that such a simple addition would breathe new life into this cocktail ?

What does "top it up" mean? How much prosecco should you add?

Thanks for bringing to my attention. I've amended the recipe to specify all quantities as equal parts,

Thank you for the reply! That's what I decided to use in the end as well and it worked great! It simultaneously becomes a less sweet and less bitter Negroni. Very nice recipe indeed.

Used a Pignoletto to top up the negroni, worked well

This was great. The quality of the ingredients is critical and make sure your sparkling wine is brut. Loved that not one flavour overpowered the other. I think this is my favourite negroni.

It's alright but I would much rather drink a negroni and then drink some prosecco. Or just 2 negronis.

This is the best possible way to use a bottle of prosecco, cava, spumante (or NV champagne you don’t like) in summer. In winter add these to a generous slug of sloe gin. You will immediately stop thinking ill of whoever brought these bottles to your dinner party!
