AMERICANO
The perfect mix of two Italian Spirits, Campari and Vermouth, and soda.
Created in around 1860 and first served in Caffé Campari, it was originally known as the Milano-Torino due to its two main ingredients: Campari from Milano, and sweet vermouth from Torino. The cocktail was later renamed due to its popularity among American tourists around the turn of the 20th century and prior to Prohibition.

1 part (1oz/3cl) Campari
1 part (1oz/3cl) Sweet Vermouth
A splash of soda water

NEGRONI SBAGLIATO
A pioneer of classic cocktail reinterpretations.
The Negroni Sbagliato was invented in 1972 by Mirko Stocchetto at Bar Basso in Milano, who created this take on a classic by accident. When asked to make a Negroni, Stocchetto poured prosecco instead of gin, and thus a ‘new classic’ was born. The cocktail can still be enjoyed around the world today, with its name telling the story of its creation, as in Italian “sbagliato” means mistaken.
NEGRONI SBAGLIATO INGREDIENTS
1 part (1oz/3cl) Campari

CAMPARI SHAKERATO
