Ingredients: 1 oz gin; 1 oz Campari; 1 oz Fernet-Branca

A Negroni variant that substitutes Fernet-Branca for sweet vermouth — the result is sharper, more intensely bitter, and far more herbal than the original. The Black Negroni is a polarizing but beloved drink among those who appreciate the bitter end of the spectrum.
