Peanut Free Negroni
Few cocktails have the kind of effortless cool that this one does — bitter, sweet, and bracingly aromatic all at once. Equal parts gin, Campari, and sweet vermouth come together in a rocks glass over a single large ice cube, making it one of the most satisfying drinks you can mix at home. The real finishing touch is that twist of orange peel, expressed over the surface so the citrus oils hit the drink before you even take a sip. Because this recipe sticks to straightforward spirits and a fresh garnish, there are no hidden additives or shared-facility snack ingredients to worry about — just clean, classic cocktail craft. Stirring for a full 20 to 25 seconds is the move that separates a great version from a mediocre one, chilling and diluting the drink to exactly the right balance. It's the kind of thing you'll want to make for guests, then quietly make again for yourself once everyone's settled in.
