Negroni Cocktail
Glowing red, the Negroni manages to be both sophisticated and simple at the same time and is definitely for a grown-up palate - for many it's simply too...

Easily my favourite drink of all time. Just perfectly balanced perfection. I'm curious what people's experiences are of how it's prepared & served 'in the wild' - the traditional method of building it in a glass & stirring seems to have fallen out of favour for quite a while now. Almost every bar I've ever been in will use a mixing glass, and serving over block ice now seems the norm (my preference too).

Building in the glass is fun and easy and saves time, particularly if making multiple drinks. Using the mixing glass ensures precision and attention to detail, but sometimes just too much like hard work’
