Campari is so versatile I keep a bottle at all times. Negroni when I want to get fancy
I find Campari is very polarizing. People either love it, or hate it.
What gin and vermouth do you use in your Negroni? For a Negroni, I actually prefer Tanqueray to the Hendrick’s I used last night, but I didn’t have any. Hendrick’s is a much softer gin and I think the Campari just mows it over. Similarly, I think Carpano Antica— which is fantastic in whiskey cocktails— is a little too much in a Negroni. I sometimes keep a 375 of a less rich sweet vermouth (think M&R) in the fridge for them, but I was out of that as well. Ah well, adapt and overcome.

I love a “Naked & Famous” and my husband loves when I drink them. He likes to say, “I don’t need you to be famous, but I want you to be naked!
Equal parts Mezcal, Aperol, Yellow Chartreuse, and Lime Juice.

Happy Friday everyone! Let’s get things going.
The High Noon
The original uses mezcal, which I find a bit too smoky for this application, as it tends to overpower the grapefruit. A reposado strikes a perfect balance for my taste, but try both and decide for yourself.
I made one for the wife (no pics) as well. Let’s see if it makes her clothes fall off.
Cheers!
-1.5 oz Espolon Reposado
-1 oz grapefruit juice
-.5 oz Cointreau
-.5 oz Campari
-orange or grapefruit swath for garnish
Shake all liquid ingredients with ice and strain into chilled glass. Garnish with an orange or grapefruit peel

What do you use to peel the fruit for your drinks? Looks to be micro thin.

I’m a gin person as well. I’m kinda boring with my cocktails. My perfect martini is Monkey 47 (but currently doing Beefeater or Citadel), heavy splash of Dolin, orange bitters, and a lemon or orange twist.
Otherwise - Lately I’ve been on an espresso martini kick. I don’t have an espresso machine, but I just use cold brew.

Standard vegetable peeler. The trick is using room temp citrus.
