Even the sturdiest Negroni fan needs an occasional break from the in-your-face bitter notes of Campari and similar bitter orange apéritifs. Enter the Berlioni, the brainchild of Berlin bartender Gonçalo de Sousa. It swaps in Cynar (an artichoke amaro) for a smoky, earthy riff on the classic that offers just a hint of bitter complexity and a welcome respite from the tongue-drying flavor of the original.
Stir all ingredients with ice until well-chilled. Strain into an ice-filled short glass (preferably over a single large sphere or cube). Express an orange twist over the drink and drop in as a garnish.
The Cocktail Party app puts this drink – and hundreds more – in your pocket, and tells you what you can make from the ingredients you have at home. It’s the best $3.99 you’ll ever spend on a drink.
