Americano

Campari, a bitter Italian apéritif, can be difficult to develop an appreciation for. This drink is a great place to start – the vermouth balances some of the bitter elements, allowing Campari’s bright citrus notes to shine through.

Ingredients
- 1 parts Bitter orange apéritif
- 1 part Sweet vermouth
- 2 parts Sparkling water
Instructions
Build in the order given in a short ice-filled glass, and garnish with a twist or slice of lemon or orange.
