If you have never tried Negroni with Genepì (instead of gin), you are missing out on a stellar drink. It is not a cocktail for everyone, it serves a palate open to experimentation and very herbaceous and alpine flavors, but it is a fabulous experience. The change is radical. The Negroni starts from the beating and resinous heart of the gin to open towards the dark side of the bitter and the more sumptuous side of the sweet vermouth, and in fact, it is also necessary to modify the doses. 3 cl of genepì and 3 cl of bitters would create a too massive bitter front, so it is better to tame the recipe by decreasing the bitter doses: 1.5 cl of bitters is enough.

The cocktail keeps all its aromatic charge unaltered. It, therefore, is an excellent candidate for your evening aperitifs, but let’s say that it is much less compact than the classic Negroni. But a little imagination never hurts.

Pay attention to the alcohol content of the Negroni with the Genepì, ok it’s an aperitif, but it has a heavy amount of alcohol.
