Notes
This Aperol Negroni is made with a London dry gin, juniper-forward gins with fewer botanicals. Some examples of dry gins are Tanquerary or Beefeater. You can play with other gins if you like!
If you like your cocktails less sweet, use dry vermouth in place of the sweet vermouth - this is called a Contessa cocktail.
The Negroni is best served with a single large ice cube. The lower surface area means it melts more slowly than cubes or crushed ice.
