History:
Its creation dates back to the early 20th century. An Italian Count, Camillo Negroni is often credited with its creation. The most widely accepted version of its origin attributes its invention to him in Florence, Italy in 1919. He frequented Caffè Casoni, now known as Caffè Giacosa. He supposedly asked the bartender to strengthen his favourite cocktail, the Americano by replacing soda water with gin, one of the main ingredients in this cocktail. - Experiment with different gin and vermouth brands to find your preferred flavour profile.
- Adjust the Campari quantity based on your taste preferences for bitterness.
- Consider trying different SodaStream Sparkling Water flavours for a unique twist.
