Americano
Preparation
Fill a mixing glass (or an old-fashioned glass) with ice to chill.
Pour the Campari and red vermouth over the ice.
Gently stir with a mixing spoon for a few seconds to mix the ingredients well and chill the mixture.
Add fresh ice to a service glass (such as an aperitif glass or wine glass).
Strain the Campari and red vermouth mixture into the service glass.
Complete the cocktail with sparkling water to balance the flavors and add a refreshing note.
Add an orange slice or an orange zest as decoration for an aromatic touch.
Serve your "Americano" and enjoy this light and delightfully bitter aperitif.
The Americano is a classic cocktail that has gained popularity as a refreshing aperitif. It is light in alcohol and highlights the flavors of the bitterness of Campari, the sweetness of red vermouth, and the lightness of sparkling water. Cheers! 🥂
