Not to sound picky, but I think the photo is wrong, because it looks like there's a lemon zest twist but the recipe calls for an orange zest twist. Can someone check it please?
I love this negroni-martini (magroni? negrini?). People have described it well in the comments. All four elements of the drink come through nicely—with the Cointreau in a more supportive “glue” role.
I used the 3:1:1:1 original ratio, and found it balanced—Difford’s 2:1:1:1 I imagine offers an alternative that pulls back the bite (which might be a welcome mod for some!) If I wanted it less boozy, I’d prefer that to the option of putting it on the rocks… which runs the risk of thinning it out.
Delightful. Quite right —this is much more pleasant than the regular Negroni. More refreshing, brighter, and perhaps more refined with Aperol instead of Campari.
