Cocktail and Tranquility

Thank goodness I didn't spy this wonderful Negroni recipe BEFORE I went shopping. Otherwise you know what would have happened in the beverage department. This recipe came via the Saga newsletter I get every now and then. A concoction from the irrepressible and perfectly formed Mr. Stanley Tucci. Yes I do have a bit of a crush on the man, who can blame me?
50mls gin, 25mls sweet vermouth, 25mls campari, ice, twist of orange peel. Pour the booze into a cocktail shaker filled with ice, shake well and strain into your favourite glass, garnish with a slice or twist of orange, sit down, drink and feel the sun in your stomach. Stanley says, " in this past year I began a relationship with a Negroni and I am happy to say it's going very well".

  3. That's the trouble with cocktails, if they have a nice fruity refreshing flavour they can go down like fruit squash.

  4. Sounds delicious although they'd need to create an alcohol-free version for me ... xxx
