A small and elegant Negroni variation, served straight-up which benefits from a splash more than dilution than stirring with good ice delivers

A Negroni is a Negroni...love it or leave it. We love it. This cocktail strikes us as a misguided concession to someone who probably wants to be sipping something else.

Surely the point is that this arose independently and that great minds think alike… it’s great variation on the ingredient combination imo. Negroni is popular in significant part to the ease of remembering the recipe, rather than it being the ideal balance of flavours. And the bijou size here creates a different way of thinking about the same materials. Having said all that and finished that drink, I now feel like a negroni 😜. I quite like 45, 22.5, 30 recipe suffrage by one of the other DDDs (Diffords Discerning Drinkers), whose name sadly escaped me. Cheers!

A couple of drops of chocolate bitters also worked really well here, especially as my sweet vermouth was slightly past its best. Worked beautifully with the saline.

Chocolate bitters, is that the same as mole bitters? And would it be possible to diy it by adding cacao nibs to a regular Angostura bitters?

My new favourite negroni. Already made it several times via the Early access feature. Tried various combinations including split cocchi vermouth Di Torino and dopo Teatro. Very very tasty indeed. Love the hint of saline too.

As someone who’s only a moderate campari lover, this really works, and is relatively light and approachable but very tasty.
