Review

Rabarbaro amaro influences this Negroni, making it a tad drier and punchier than standard three ingredient Negronis.

I really enjoyed the depth that Rabarbaro brings to this Negroni riff. The bitter flavours combine particularly well. A good enough reason to store Rabarbaro in your cabinet.

Used rhubarb gin - skipped the rabarbaro - and a splash of tonic water - tastes great.

Which rhubarb gin did you use? I use Ha'Penny Rhubarb (https://pearselyonsdistillery.com/product/hapenny-rhubarb-gin/), Tempus Fugit Gran Classico (https://www.tempusfugitspirits.com/products/gran-classico-bitter/), and Carpono Antica (https://www.carpano.com/en/prodotto/antica-formula-2/?age-verified=c24ef8f791)
