I came out
Subdued,
Unhappy.
I was a soldier
[But]
I had to prove it.
I ran.
I couldn’t [escape]
This horror show.
I got orders.
Make a man of you
Or kill you
Trying.
A good choice?
A good choice.
Others are button
Pushers.
We do the work
Good luck!
Cocktail of the Week: Negroni
Earlier this year I wrote about the precursor to the Negroni, the Americano, a cocktail with Campari, sweet vermouth, and club soda. I had originally intended to follow up that post with the Negroni but got distracted for about six months… So, here we are today with this classic cocktail. Simple, delicious, with a flavor profile anyone would love. Unless, you’re not a fan of herbal or bitter liquors… If that’s the case you should probably ignore any cocktail with Campari in it. I really think the Negroni is delicious though. It’s a delightful digestif.
Negroni
- 1 oz. gin
- 1 oz. Campari
- 1 oz sweet vermouth
In an old fashioned glass half full of ice pour ingredients. Stir. Garnish with orange peel.
I don’t know what I can add to the gallons of ink that has already been spilled in discussion of the Negroni. You don’t get labelled a classic for nothing. Smooth with a touch of bitterness at the end, this drink goes down easy. Though you don’t want to rush this one. Relax. Take your time. Enjoy the drink. Enjoy the moment. This too shall pass and there is nothing to guarantee that the future won’t be as delightful as this moment is.
Cheers!
