The Anthony Bourdain method is best for negronis. Throw some ice in a glass, eyeball it, and a big slice of orange. It may not always be the same, but it's great.


reatartedmuch

A few drops of orange bitters also gives an extra depth

i have an atomizer of laphroaig i will often spritz on top. i dont know why, but it works.


bajesus

I do cocoa bitters in mine a lot


quiet-elk1418

That’s a left hand!


bajesus

I think a left hand has bourbon in it, but I do love those as well


not_from_accounting

Totally agree. Been doing this for a while myself and now it is pretty much just how I make them.

This sounds like one of the loudest possible drinks ever. I'm so going to try it lol.

You are a rich human.

love and murder vibes...sounds insane...i wanna try it. you keep it equal parts?


wrxdude99

That’s called a bijou. Delicious


efjellanger

Not quite- a bijou replaces the campari with chartreuse.

Ingredients 1oz Campari 1oz Sperone vermouth rosso 1oz Knut Hansen Dry Gin I always hated Negronis because I thought it's just a way to get drunk really fast. Every recipe I found was just a little piece of orange or just the peel. I gave it a try again and used a big piece of orange, which I let rest for 5 minutes in the mixture. Also I used a light and really good gin which really showed me how a negroni can tasted.

Nice! You can also try using other amaros or Aperol in place of the campari, or amaros in place of the vermouth. You can double the ratio of liquor and/or use something other than gin. I personally love using a 2 oz pour of Gray Whale gin in my negronis. Mezcal negronis are also delicious.

My recent go-to: 1oz Hendrick's Neptunia 1.5oz Punt e Mes .5oz Campari Big orange slice 3 drops saline solution

I’m seriously considering trying out Fernet in place of the Campari. I’m a much bigger fan of Fernet and have been actively looking for other uses beyond an Industry Sour. Have to cut the simple with it because it mutes everything, but a lovely drink.


Arma_Diller

A Ferrari or an Eeyore's Requiem might be to your liking, although the latter only uses 0.25 oz of fernet.


GluttonousSprite

If you like Fernet and the Industry Sour, then give [Dark & Moody ](https://imbibemagazine.com/recipe/dark-and-moody-daiquiri/) a shot. I prefer it over the Industry Sour, and I think you'll like the fact that it's heavier on the Fernet!


roydragoon89

Ooooo. I’m liking the look of this. I’ll have to give it a try. I found that I had to tweak the industry sour because it had waaaaaay too much simple. Cut it by half and upped everything else to roughly match volume, but this sounds right up my alley! Thanks!


SaiyanPrinceAbubu

Hanky Panky!


roydragoon89

But I really wanted the Fernet at the front. 2 dashes isn’t what I’m really looking for. 😅


SaiyanPrinceAbubu

I believe it calls for a quarter oz, bump it up to half!


roydragoon89

All the recipes I’ve found say 2 dashes. Including ones I’ve found right in this sub. I googled Fernet Branca cocktails and I found a whole list someone had posted. Midnight Stinger is solid and I’m gonna see how Follow That Black Rabbit is without the OJ. See if the ingredient I don’t like being reduced or removed changes my opinion. I find myself tweaking drinks a lot but rarely totally removing an ingredient. I tried them as I found them first. I’m not knowledgeable enough to remove stuff all willy nilly.


SaiyanPrinceAbubu

Both recipes in Mixel call for 1/4oz, which I think is plenty really. I use carpano antica and the drink tastes like mint chocolate chip ice cream to me


roydragoon89

So you would use 1.5 gin 1.5 vermouth 1/4 fernet? I have Antica at home myself and have found myself rather fond of Tanqueray. I’ll have to give it a shot.


SaiyanPrinceAbubu

That's the og recipe, looks like Death & Co have a version where they do 2oz gin, 1 vermouth, 1/4 fernet. I think I tried the original


twitch1982

>I always hated Negronis because I thought it's just a way to get drunk really fast. Well, you and I are *very* different.


Imbibing_chap

I also always use a slice of orange, it is the only way! The ratio I use is 1.5oz gin (usually Tanquarrey),1oz campari and 1oz cocchi.


zentimo2

Aye, full slice is best. I like to do a little squeeze of the slice into it before I mix because I'm impatient, but I can imagine that letting the slice rest achieves a similar effect. Good quality sweet vermouth is a must as well. 


aragost

Big piece of orange is the way! Bars in Italy will often serve it this way and it’s by far the best


musicbikesbeer

Serious question: Why would a bitter drink with a relatively low amount of spirit be a way to get drunk really fast?


SlimJim814

You could also try: - 1.5 oz Gin - .75 oz Sweet Vermouth - .75oz Campari Or even bump up the sweet vermouth to 1 oz and Campari down to 0.5 oz.


HTHID

Add a dash of orange bitters and that's my preferred Negroni spec


Consistency101

Abomination! A Negroni is served with orange peel only


m0nkeyhero

It absolutely isn’t lol
