The '''Negroni''' [[cocktail]] is made of 1 part [[gin]], 1 part sweet [[vermouth]], and 1 part [[bitters]], traditionally [[Campari]]. It is considered an [[apéritif]], a pre-dinner cocktail intended to stimulate the appetite.
==History==
While the drink's origins are obscured by time, the most widely reported version is that it was invented in [[Florence]], [[Italy]] in 1919, at Caffè Casoni, now called [[Caffè Giacosa]]. [[Count]] Camillo Negroni invented it by asking the [[bartender]], Fosco Scarselli, to strengthen his favorite cocktail, the [[Americano (cocktail)|Americano]], by adding gin rather than the normal soda water. The bartender also added an orange garnish rather than the typical lemon garnish of the Americano to signify that it was a different drink. <ref>{{cite news |title=SHAKEN AND STIRRED; Dressing Italian |last=Cecchini |first=Toby |date=06 October 2002 |newspaper=[[The New York Times]] |page=913|accessdate=2009-10-24 |url=http://www.nytimes.com/2002/10/06/style/shaken-and-stirred-dressing-italian.html}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=Negroni history lesson ends in a glass|last=Regan|first=Gary|date=29 March 2009|newspaper=[[San Francisco Chronicle]]|page=e-6|accessdate=2009-12-14|url=http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/03/27/FD8R1696QJ.DTL&type=food}}</ref><ref>Luca Picchi, ''Sulle tracce del conte.

==Variations==
Variants of the Negroni also exist:
* For a hot summer day, the Negroni can be stretched into a thirst quencher with soda (see [[Americano (cocktail)|Americano]]).
* the '''Negroni''' '''''Sbagliato''''' ("Wrong" Negroni), where [[spumante]] [[brut]] is substituted for the [[gin]]. It was invented at Bar Basso in [[Milan]]. Popular in Italy.
* the '''Negroski''', where [[vodka]] is substituted for the [[gin]]. Popular in Italy.
* A '''Sparkling Negroni''' is a Negroni served straight up in a martini glass with [[Champagne (wine)|champagne]] or [[prosecco]] added. This is usually served with an orange twist.
