Despite the name, unless you've a rouge ingredient, this cocktail is not pink. And amazingly, when this recipe came my way in April 2025, this tasty Negroni...
Made this with Dolin Blanc and Sarti instead of a red bitter. Sure is pink now, and definitely something else! Not necessarily better than a standard Negroni but worth to be tasted!
It's funny because when I was a university student I had only a vague idea that a Negroni was equal parts Campari, gin and Vermouth. I did not know which vermouth exactly, and I couldn't be bothered to check, so I would often just make it with Martini bianco (commonly found in Italian supermarkets) and thought it was great.
Now my taste is a bit more refined and I do prefer the original version. Still, this combination reminds me of when I was young and foolish!
I am keen to hear about any negronis that are made with rosé vermouth. I have a bottle from Vault which seems ideal, but it would be interesting to hear if anyone has had success using it. Cheers.
