    5 Variations of the Classic Negroni:

     

    1. Hot Negroni:

    Embrace the cold season with a heartwarming twist on the classic Negroni. The 'Hot Negroni' transforms the traditional recipe with a comforting modification—replacing soda water with steaming hot water for a drink that wraps you in warmth.

    Made with 100ml of gin, 60ml of Campari, 60ml of sweet vermouth, and a splash of hot water, this concoction is stirred in a heatproof glass and optionally garnished with an orange peel for a citrusy touch. Perfect for sipping beside a crackling fire or during a frosty night in, the Hot Negroni proves that some classics can be enjoyed in cozy, new ways.

    Dive into the comforting embrace of the Hot Negroni on our product page and keep the chill at bay with every sip.

    5. Negroni Sbagliato:
