The Raspberry Rose Negroni cocktail is a delightful and aromatic twist on the classic Negroni
The Raspberry Rose Negroni introduces the sweet tartness of raspberry and the floral notes of rose.

History:
The traditional Negroni, originating from Florence, Italy, in the early 20th century, is renowned for its balanced blend of gin, Campari, and sweet vermouth. The Raspberry Rose Negroni builds upon this iconic base by incorporating raspberry and rose water, offering a contemporary take that celebrates the cocktail's versatility and adaptability to new flavors.
Ingredients:
- 1 oz (30 ml) Gin
- 1 oz (30 ml) Campari
- 1 oz (30 ml) Sweet Vermouth
- 1/2 oz (15 ml) Raspberry syrup (preferably homemade or high-quality store-bought)
- A few drops of rose water (to taste)
- Ice cubes
Garnish:
- Fresh raspberry and a rose petal or an orange twist
Glass:
- Rocks glass
Alcohol Content:
Like the classic Negroni, the Raspberry Rose Negroni is relatively potent, with alcoholic ingredients comprising the majority of the drink. The gin, Campari, and sweet vermouth typically have ABVs ranging from 15% to 40%. The addition of raspberry syrup and rose water introduces additional flavors without significantly altering the alcohol content, maintaining the drink's strong character.
Instructions:
-
Chill the Glass: Begin by chilling your rocks glass, either by placing it in the freezer for a few minutes or by filling it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail.
-
Mix Ingredients: In a mixing glass filled with ice, combine the gin, Campari, sweet vermouth, raspberry syrup, and a few drops of rose water. The amount of rose water should be adjusted according to personal preference, being careful not to overpower the cocktail's other flavors.
-
Stir Well: Stir the mixture for about 30 seconds or until well-chilled and properly diluted. This ensures that the flavors meld together smoothly.
-
Prepare the Glass: If you chilled the glass with ice water, discard the water now. Alternatively, you can fill the glass with fresh ice cubes.
-
Strain and Serve: Strain the cocktail into the prepared rocks glass over the ice.
-
Garnish: Garnish with a fresh raspberry and a delicate rose petal or an orange twist for a fragrant and visually appealing finish.
Presentation:
The Raspberry Rose Negroni cocktail offers an exquisite variation on the classic Negroni, perfect for special occasions or whenever you're in the mood for a drink that's both sophisticated and refreshing.
