My home cocktail is the Negroni but with a twist. I don't see the Negroni as a cocktail, it's an apéritifs, a digestive you sip after dinner. In order to dress it up as a cocktail I add 1 shot of key lime juice and equal parts orange soda water. Try it that way and you won't go back.

WOW, so much misinformation, Don't try to camoflauge wrong information with nice animation - Please.| I understand that you try to do it easy and catchy, but honestly you're just adding more false information on a cocktail that has already so wrong strories about. Plus, Boulevardier has different ratio, Old pal - Extra dry vermouth, and many more. P.S - Read Luca Picchi book - Negroni an Italian legend, I'm sure you'll learn a lot from that! Cheers.
