Nice! Love Negronis but I ran out of gin and Campari at the same time.
I liked it as is! Didn’t think it was too citrusy and my only change was using angostura orange bitters
Oops! Just realized I’ve grabbed Cointreau instead of Grand Marnier by accident both times I’ve made this drink.

Interesting! All I can find in my area (SE Massachusetts) is rhubarb and ginger gin, not plain rhubarb gin, but I guess the rhubarb ginger gin would work well in this cocktail, anyway!
Used cardamom bitters in place of angostura, but otherwise made exactly as written.Delicious! But as someone else already commented, it was gone too soon.
This is a current favorite! Found it when looking for cocktails that call for Falernum, as I bought a big bottle of it a while back. I added slightly more lime juice to the drinks tonight, (unintentionally, but it was too little to keep and too much to throw away). I liked the bit of extra tartness.
Couldn’t find a peach aperitif in my area!
Used Jack Daniels but substituted my homemade cantaloupe liqueur for the peach aperitif. Delicious!
My first time trying Suze! I’m drinking this as a nightcap instead of as an aperitif. May be a bit more bitter than intended, as I might have underdone the agave syrup and overdone the grapefruit bitters. Still tasty!
I added a couple of dashes of rhubarb bitters. Will definitely make this again, but might try reversing the proportion of amaretto to rabarbaro.
I liked this drink as written, although I didn’t have the exact brands of gin and limoncello called for. In Mr. Boston book, a similar drink is listed as “The Lemony Snicket Cocktail” and calls for 2-1:2 gin and a 1/2 oz each of limoncello, yellow Chartreuse, and fresh lemon juice.
A Negroni I will definitely be making again! I thought it was a good balance of sweet and bitter.
Had these tonight to celebrate World Cocktail Day (and my husband’s birthday) tonight. Made as directed. Perfect!
We live in the Boston area, so we will have to have one of these (Cocktail of the Day) to commemorate the anniversary of the Molasses Flood on January 15th, for sure!
I’m going to use apple cider for this drink. Thanks to Miguel for mentioning that it works well with cider!
Easy and tasty!
Stirred instead of shook, but it was still tasty!
I know this drink is categorized as an aperitif, but it’s currently my favorite nightcap. Somehow I don’t have dry vermouth on hand, so have been using Noilly Prat Rouge in this drink and going heavy on the dashes of the two bitters.
I only had yellow Chartreuse, but this drink was still good!
Delicious! Didn’t have the exact brand of sake, but finally opened the bottle I had bought quite a while ago and never used!
Made these tonight for World Calvados Day! Delicious! Added a tiny bit more lemon juice than recipe called for.
I made rhubarb simple syrup so I was looking for cocktails to use it in. Thanks for posting this! I did think the 2 oz of simple syrup would make the drink too sweet and liked it with just 1 oz, but my husband would have liked it sweeter (not being a huge rhubarb fan to begin with) so I would say either amount works, depending on your taste.
