Campari Negroni Ready To Drink Cocktail

Campari's classic Italian cocktail stays true to the original recipe created over 100 years ago with Campari at its heart. The recipe requires only three ingredients in equal parts: Campari, Sweet Vermouth and London Dry Gin, the perfect balance of bitter, sweet and dry.

The Negroni was invented by Count Camillo Negroni in Florence one evening in 1919. As the Count ordered his customary Americano at Café Casoni, desiring something a little stronger, he asked his friend the bartender Fosco Scarselli to keep the Campari and vermouth, but replace the soda with a touch of gin. The Count had recently returned from England. Perhaps he was carrying a little gin from his travels. To enhance the botanicals, Fosco then decided to replace the lemon with a slice of orange and the cocktail became known as the Negroni, named after the Count.
