Cocktails with gin, Campari and Martini Rosso

The best cocktail you can make with gin, Campari and Martini Rosso is a Negroni: it uses all three in equal parts and delivers that classic bitter, herbaceous aperitivo balance.

If you want something in the same family but with a slightly different shape, Sixty Six keeps the Negroni backbone of gin, Campari and red vermouth, then adds dry sherry and a dash of lemon juice for extra lift. It is a great choice if you like your Campari drinks a touch brighter.

For a Martini style drink that uses Martini Bianco (white vermouth) as well as red vermouth, go for a Martini Perfect. It is built around gin with equal parts white and red vermouth, so it is ideal when you have both bottles open and want something aromatic and stirred.

A few more good fits from the same set:

Sweet Martini: gin and red vermouth, simple and vermouth forward.
Martinez: gin plus red vermouth with a richer, more aromatic profile.
Tango Cocktail: brings in triple sec alongside gin and red vermouth.

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 is the flavor profile of a Negroni?

A Negroni features a balanced blend of bitter, sweet, and herbal flavors, with the gin providing a strong, botanical base, Campari adding a distinctive bitterness, and red vermouth contributing sweetness.

Can I use both red and white vermouth in cocktails?

Yes, many cocktails, such as the Perfect Martini, use both red and white vermouth to achieve a balanced flavor profile with both sweet and dry notes.

What is the difference between a dry gin and other types of gin?

Dry gin, or London Dry gin, has a stronger juniper flavor and less sweetness compared to other gins. This makes it ideal for classic cocktails like martinis and negronis.

How should I garnish a gin-based cocktail?

Garnishes like lemon twists, lime wedges, olives, or a maraschino cherry are commonly used to complement the botanical flavors of gin cocktails.

What are some alternatives if I don't have Angostura Bitters?

If Angostura Bitters are unavailable, you could use other aromatic bitters or herbal bitters, which can provide a similar depth to your cocktail.
