Coffee Negroni Recipe
Description
This Coffee Negroni combines the classic bitter and herbal flavors of Campari, sweet vermouth, and gin, accented by freshly brewed espresso or strong coffee. The ingredients are stirred well with ice in a mixing vessel or mason jar, then strained into a rocks glass over a large ice cube to chill without dilution. The orange garnish—peel, wedge, or dehydrated wheel—adds a fragrant citrus note that contrasts with the drink's bitterness and coffee depth.
The espresso amount can be adjusted to vary the coffee intensity, but increasing beyond half an ounce reduces the alcoholic taste and concentrates coffee flavor. The approach keeps the cocktail balanced and aromatic. The drink is served chilled as a sophisticated aperitif with layered flavors from spirit, coffee, and citrus.
Ingredients
- 1 ounce Campari
- 1 ounce sweet vermouth
- 1 ounce gin
- ½ ounce espresso or strong brewed coffee
- orange to garnish, strip of peel, wedge, or dehydrated wheel
Instructions
- Add a small handful of ice to a cocktail mixer or 2-cup mason jar.
- Add the Campari, sweet vermouth, gin, and espresso and mix with a long spoon for about 30 seconds.
- Strain the negroni into a rocks glass with a large ice cube and garnish with an orange peel, orange wedge, or dehydrated orange wheel.
Notes
- For stronger coffee flavor, increase espresso to 1 ounce, though it may reduce perceived alcohol balance.
