Gin-based Negroni recipes

One of, if not the simplest of classic cocktails has formed the base for so many contemporary variations.

Negroni Cocktail

Glowing red, the Negroni manages to be both sophisticated and simple at the same time and is definitely for a grown-up palate - for many it's simply too

Fridge Negroni

Enjoy a Negroni at any time. This recipe is designed to be poured over ice taken directly from the freezer, so it allows for minimal dilution from melting

White Negroni

Wayne Collins, this drink's creator, originally used equal parts as is usual for a classic Negroni and after trying various other formulations, I've found

Iron Negroni

Black in colour and with a flavour that's recognisably part of the Negroni family but with a flat Coke-like smoothness that makes a classic Negroni taste

Alpine Negroni

A beautifully balanced and complex alpine-influenced riff on a White Negroni.

Amber Negroni (Difford's recipe)

As the name suggests, this riff on a classic Negroni is amber in colour with honeyed notes and is not quite as bitter as the classic red version.

A classic negroni with a splash of blood orange juice.

Christmas Negroni

A classic Negroni turned festive with added Christmassy flavours. A proper Christmas cracker!

Cornwall Negroni

Served up, heavy on the gin and light on vermouth.

Negroni Spumante

A Negroni lengthened with sparkling wine. Every Negroni drinker should try this variation

Bergamot Negroni

As the name suggests, subtle bergamot notes influence this dryish Negroni riff.

Blue Negroni

As the name suggests, this is a blue-rinsed, orange-forward riff on a classic Negroni. If a six-ingredient Negroni seems over the top, try this simplified

Cardinale

Originally made with Riesling Rhine wine, the Cardinale has become a Negroni made with dry vermouth, producing a lighter cocktail than when made with the

Charente White Negroni

A riff on the White Negroni with the brandy replacing half of the gin. Fittingly, 'Charente' references the Cognac area of France.

Charlie Pie

A small and elegant Negroni variation, served straight-up which benefits from a splash more than dilution than stirring with good ice delivers.

Chocolate Negroni

The chocolate in this riff on a classic Negroni seems to boost the orange notes in the Italian red bitter liqueur.

Cin-Cyn

A slightly sweeter, less bitter, artichoke-influenced riff on a classic Negroni.

Cold Brew Negroni

Just as it says on the tin, a Negroni with a splash of cold brew coffee. Simples! Whether you view this as an aperitivo or a breakfast cocktail says a

Coffee Negroni

Gin-forward, boozy and bittersweet – as it says on the tin, this is a coffee-influenced Negroni – simple as that.

Comte de Sureau

Sprays of oils from both orange and lemon zest twists aid the fine balance of this bittersweet aperitivo, which fittingly has become known by many as an

Eeyore's Requiem

On the bitter side of bittersweet with cleaning piney and herbal notes from gin, carciofo, and fernet.

Jäger Negroni

A lightly spicy Negroni perfectly suited to the after-dinner digestive moment. If it doesn't aid your digestion it will aid your sleep.

Jasmine

A slightly sour bittersweet riff on the Pegu Club. The original is just on the tart side of balanced without our addition of the optional spoon of sugar

Less is More Negroni

Looks like a Negroni, tastes like a very good and interesting Negroni, yet only has two ingredients – hence the name. Also, quicker to make than a three-ingredient

Mulled Negroni

Red wine, clove-forward falernum and sloe gin add Mulled notes to this Negroni.

Murano Negroni

The merest hint of hazelnut liqueur makes this relatively light and approachable Negroni.

Negroni Amaro Sour

Perhaps more an Amaro Sour than it is a Negroni Sour but this a very tasty bittersweet aperitivo nonetheless.

Negroni and the Goat

Negroni in name and Negroni in style with the sweetness of Aperol countered by the use of amaro.

Negroni Bianco

This white Negroni is not quite as dry and bitter as a traditional red Negroni and has additional pleasing creamy honeysuckle notes.

Negroni Bianco Bergamotto

Dry with wine like-minerality, zesty bergamot and piney gin notes.

Pinky Negroni

Bittersweet and delicately faintly floral.

Pomegranate Negroni

Sheroni

A Negroni riff created in October 2021 by yours truly at the Clocktower in Rye, England.

Sicilian Negroni

Blood orange juice replaces sweet vermouth in this fruity Negroni.

Slow Negroni

As the name suggests, this is a classic Negroni with sloe gin introduced as a fourth ingredient. Its flavour is exactly as it says on the tin – a sloe

Tunnel Negroni

Bittersweet and delicately herbal.

Tuscan Negroni

Floral amaro adds a subtle but distinctive note to this Negroni.

Violet Negroni cocktail

Bittersweet with a strong hint of gentian. A great aperitif.

Mellow Negroni

As the name suggests, it's a Negroni with the gin-laced punch you'd expect but a little less of the bitterness.

Green Negroni

Don’t be put off or misled by the lurid green colour or this cocktail, it is both bittersweet and complex. As the name suggests it is based in a classic

Negroni Sour

Just as advertised on the tin, this is a bittersweet and sour straight-up Negroni. Pucker up, it's a tasty aperitivo.

Parma Negroni

A long citrusy riff that takes the classic from an early evening cocktail to perhaps one to enjoy on a sunny afternoon.

Peroni Negroni

Negroni is a great chaser to beer so why not consume in unison.

Lento Negroni

A riff of a Sloegroni/Slow Negroni with sloe gin replaced by Spanish pacharán, which adds a delicate aniseed note.

Mandarine Negroni

Bittersweet with, as the name suggests, zesty mandarin freshness.

Witches' Negroni

A classic Negroni, bewitched by a splash of Strega liqueur.

Negroni Flip

Bittersweetness rounded and made wholesome by the addition of an egg. If you like Negronis, be sure to sample this cocktail's flip side. Depending on

Rich marsala replaces sweet vermouth in this Sicilian-influenced Negroni.

A vermouth-forward Spanish variation on the Negroni, which is great served over ice or straight-up.

Apocalypse Negroni

Bittersweet and sweet 'n' sour, this straight-up Negroni is designed to have that extra pinch of acidity that keeps the palate alive and fresh.

Fergroni

Serving a Negroni garnished with lemon rather than orange zest twist is normally an act of heresy, but the Fergroni does indeed benefit, adding zesty vitality

Strawberry Negroni

Just as it says on the tin, a classic Negroni with strawberry fruitiness. Be sure to use sweet, ripe, small strawberries. (You'll still need to be a Negroni
