The First Word
LIQUOR: Campari, Cocchi Americano
DIFFICULTY: Easy
Aperitivos are all the rage these days with their sweet-bitter character and palate-clearing quality. We have to admit we’ve come to love their herbal zing and bitter finish. That’s what makes this concoction so adventurous – yet nicely unified and balanced by the sweet spice of Big O. The lemon sparks and brightens the flavors and helps soften the bitterness.
