What cocktails can I make with Campari, gin, Cinzano Vermouth Rosso, fernet, tonic, Gancia, Gancia Hibiscus, and Borghetti?
Cocktail Colin says:
Given the ingredients you have on hand—Campari, gin, Cinzano vermouth Rosso, Fernet, tonic, Gancia, Gancia Hibiscus, and Borghetti—you have a great base to work with for several classic and sophisticated cocktails. Here are some options ordered by their rating/score, with a bit of background and why they might be ideal for you:
1. Negroni (4.84/5): This is a timeless classic that you can easily make with your Campari, gin, and Cinzano vermouth Rosso. The Negroni is renowned for its balanced, complex flavor profile, combining the herbal notes from the gin, the bitter and citrusy flavors of Campari, and the rich sweetness of vermouth. It's typically served cold and stirred in a lowball glass, often garnished with an orange peel to enhance its aromatic experience. Whether you're enjoying a quiet evening or entertaining guests, this sophisticated drink is always a hit.
2. MonteNegroni (4.7/5): A modern twist on the Negroni, the MonteNegroni adds Amaro into the mix. While you don't have Amaro, your Fernet can serve as a bitter substitute, adding a slightly different but equally intriguing complexity. Mixing your gin, Cinzano vermouth Rosso, and Fernet will give this cocktail an appealing depth that's perfect for a new experience while still providing the familiar bitter-sweet profile.
3. Milano Torino (4.7/5): This simple yet elegant cocktail requires only Aperol (which you could approximate somewhat with a lighter or less intense liqueur if you have it) and red vermouth. Combining these two ingredients will yield a vibrant, bittersweet flavor perfect as an aperitif. If you want to adjust the taste, you can experiment by adding a splash of Campari for extra bitterness.
4. Americano (4.24/5): If you prefer something lighter and slightly less alcoholic, the Americano is an excellent option. Made with Campari, red vermouth, and topped with a splash of soda water (you can use tonic if you prefer), this cocktail is refreshing and perfect for stimulating the appetite before a meal. It's a delightful mix of Italian and American flavors that is simple yet sophisticated.
These cocktails not only make the most out of the ingredients you already have, but they also offer a range of flavor profiles from the intensely bitter Negroni to the slightly more refreshing Americano. Enjoy exploring these classic and modern takes that are sure to satisfy any cocktail enthusiast!
