A Sweeter Negroni
Gin, vermouth, and Aperol get a muddled orange and a touch of sugar for a softer take on the classic bitter sipper.
Ingredients
1 oz Melborne Gin Company Dry Gin
1 oz Dolin Rouge Vermouth
1 oz Aperol Aperitivo
3 Dashes Fee Brothers Orange Bitters
1/16 tsp Sugar
1 Thick Orange Slice
Garnish Orange Zest
Directions
In your favorite cocktail shaker, muddle the orange, sugar, and the bitters, taking care not to crush the rind of the orange.
Add ice to the shaker, and build the cocktail by combing the gin, vermouth, and aperol.
Shake the cocktail vigorously, and double strain into a chilled coupe with a large ice cube.
Twist the orange zest over the coupe and drop it in.
