1 ounce Campari
1 ounce sweet vermouth

Looks like a Negroni.
Shaken or stirred?

The rule of thumb is that cocktails with juice should be shaken to aerate and mix. Cocktails with only alcohol should be stirred.
Ok. Got it.
Make a sugared rim
Ugly Duckling Bakery
Rub the lemon wedge around the lowball glass. Roll the outside of the glass in the sugar. Lightly knock off loose sugar.
Ok. Got it.
Cranberry juice vs cocktail
Ugly Duckling Bakery
This cranberry gin cocktail calls for pure cranberry juice. You could sub in cranberry cocktail, which is much sweeter, but then skip the sugared rim.
Ok. Got it.
Other Negroni Variations

The Aperol Negroni is made with Aperol in place of Campari. Aperol is less bitter and has a sweeter orange flavor.
I'll try that.
Other Negroni Variations

Or try this Negroni spritz. It's a lighter cocktail made with Prosecco, Campari, sweet vermouth, and soda water.
Sounds so refreshing
