Review

Bittersweetness rounded and made wholesome by the addition of an egg. If you like Negronis, be sure to sample this cocktail's flip side.

Depending on your tolerance for bitterness, you may want to up the rich sugar syrup to 5ml (1 barspoon).

Makes me want to start a series called "Does It Flip?": take a classic cocktail recipe, add an egg, shake, and find out the answer!

How is this cocktail so amazing? It's basically a Negroni with an added egg. The egg changes the flavour enough to make it interesting, but still has that delicious Negroni taste. I love it! Trying this for this first time to round off Negroni Week 2024 (Negroni Flip)

Thanks for this one Simon. Before I try to make it, would regular rosso vermouth work here also or is there a significant impact to the flavour?

Works well when made with a regular rosso vermouth but better with a more weighty vermouth.

Not reverse dry shake ? - knowing Simon’s preference. Is that because of the whole egg?

Both dry shake methods work with this cocktail, but perhaps better not reversed in this case.
