The Negroni is a cocktail traditionally used in Italy as an aperitif, a drink that wakes the tastebuds and prepares you for a meal. While the classic Negroni only contains three ingredients, these ingredients each bring their strengths and flavor to the cocktail, making it a bold, bitter yet satisfying drink for your taste buds.
