Last night -- a Negroni. It's quite the opposite of a sweet cocktail, and the aftertastes do an interesting and pleasant "dance" in your mouth.

Equal parts London dry gin, Campari, and sweet vermouth. I used 1 oz each. Pour over ice in an Old Fashioned glass and stir. Top with a splash of Club Soda.

There are many versions of this recipe, and this one appealed to me because of the Club Soda splash since I'm not super fond of Campari or vermouth. I was very pleased with the outcome, and found it just right.

My vermouths are always put back on the shelf with a squirt of nitrogen to purge oxidants and then refrigerated.
