Americano
Campari, red vermouth, soda, orange.
Campari and vermouth lengthened with soda. The light aperitivo that opens the night without weighing you down.
On the sip: bitter, classic and fresh. In the Italian aperitivo tradition.
It came decades before the Negroni: same Campari and red vermouth, but soda instead of gin and plenty of ice. Easier going, lower in alcohol, the same good bitterness. The one to order when the sun drops and the night still needs to get going.
