We have gin, martini, and Campari, but our Negroni does not taste good.
Cocktail Colin says:
I found a cocktail that might be a good alternative for you. It's a twist on the classic Negroni and it's known as the Martinez. It includes gin, red vermouth, maraschino cherry liqueur, and orange bitters. This cocktail has a high rating and might be a great option to try with the ingredients you have on hand.

FAQ's
We've collated some quick fire Q&A's on the question to help you find exactly what you're looking for.
What can I use instead of Campari in a Negroni?
If you don't have Campari, you can try using Aperol, which is a bit sweeter and less bitter. Some people also use a mix of red vermouth and a dash of Angostura bitters.
What is a Martinez cocktail?
A Martinez cocktail is a classic drink that combines gin, red vermouth, maraschino cherry liqueur, and orange bitters. It is considered a precursor to the modern Martini.
What are some variations of a Negroni?
Some variations include the Boulevardier, which uses bourbon instead of gin, and the Old Pal, which uses rye whiskey and dry vermouth. There are also lighter versions like the Summer Negroni.
How do you make a Negroni less bitter?
To make a Negroni less bitter, you can reduce the amount of Campari or substitute it with a sweeter liqueur like Aperol. Adding a splash of soda water can also help.
What glass should a Negroni be served in?
A Negroni is traditionally served in an old-fashioned or rocks glass over ice. Some variations may also be served in a coupe glass.
