    What's better than a classic 3-ingredient cocktail? Adding just one more ingredient that makes it extra fancy! That's what you get with a blood orange Negroni!

    The bright, sweet, ruby or even fuschia-colored juice of blood oranges has a sweet, floral flavor, that's less acidic than navel oranges. It pairs perfectly with the bittersweet flavors in a Negroni.

    Ingredients

    • Gin
    • Sweet vermouth
    • Campari: There is no substitute for Campari in a Negroni! It's a unique, bitter liqueur.
    • Blood orange juice
    • Blood orange slices: For the garnish

    How to make it

    Squeeze the juice from the oranges and set aside. Cut some round slices from whole oranges to use for the garnish.

    In a cocktail shaker or small pitcher, pour gin, vermouth, Campari, and blood orange juice over ice and stir until chilled.

    Strain into rocks glasses over ice and garnish with a slice of blood orange.

    Tips

    • Blood oranges are generally pretty small. So I suggest that you'll need two oranges per cocktail, but this could vary slightly depending on the size of the oranges you find.
    • Blood orange Negronis make a great batch cocktail for parties! Your guests will be thrilled by the beautiful color and balanced flavor. It's something just a little different that makes it a bit more special.
    • I have kept all parts equal in this recipe, but you could play around with the ratios—more juice, less alcohol, etc., whatever suits your taste.
