Lillet Negroni

oz Lillet

oz Campari

oz spring 44 gin

orange bitters

orange peel (pith removed)

Place one large ice cube into a single old fashioned, low ball, or other straight-sided glass that is 4 inches or so tall. If you don't have large ice cubes, fill the glass halfway with small cubes. Large ice cubes are preferred for this cocktail, but in a pinch, small ones will do.

Combine the Lillet, Campari, Gin, and the dashes of orange bitters in a bar pitcher or even a 2-cup measuring cup place several ice cubes. Large ice cubes are preferred for this cocktail. But if you don't have large ice cubes, use the smaller ones.

Using a bar spoon or any long spoon, stir the cocktail for 20 – 30 seconds. Stir the cocktail for half as much to not dilute as much if using small ice cubes.

Pour into the ice-filled glass.

Twist the orange peel over the cocktail to release some of the oil from the rind.

Place the peel into the cocktail and serve.

The Black Negroni is a new take on the classic Negroni. The Combination of Old Tom gin, Campari, sweet vermouth, and some Mr. Black cold brew coffee liquor. Add an orange peel and some Ice and wahoo! You have an incredibly delicious cocktail.

The Black Negroni

oz Spring44 Old Tom Gin

¾ oz Campari (or another bitter aperitif such as Spring44 Fortify)

¾ oz Sweet Vermouth

½ oz Mr. Black coffee liquor

orange

In a lowball glass combine the gin, Campari, the Sweet Vermouth, and Mr. Black. Or you can make this in a pitcher.

Add a couple of Ice cubes or one large ice cube and stir with a spoon spinning the ice cube to stir the cocktail. The idea is to chill the mixture down and to slightly dilute it.

If you mixed this in a pitcher pour into a Low ball glass filled with more ice or one large ice cube.

Twist the orange peel over the cocktail to help release some of the oils and add to the finished cocktail.
