Negroni Sbagliato Cocktail – Cookie and Kate

Negroni sbagliato means “mistaken Negroni” in Italian, however can I inform you one thing? I feel it’s an enchancment on the unique.

Basic Negronis are comprised of gin, candy vermouth and Campari. The Negroni sbagliato makes use of prosecco as an alternative of gin, which makes the Negroni sbagliato lighter, bubbly, and fewer extreme. It’s bitter however balanced, just like the Negroni’s enjoyable cousin!

The Negroni sbagliato has been TikTok-famous since 2022, however my pal Reese launched me to the Negroni sbagliato eventually 12 months’s Christmas social gathering. I’m sharing it with you in time for this 12 months’s festivities. It’s a glowing, pink aperitivo to sip earlier than your vacation meals.

The Negroni sbagliato was invented within the late 60s by Mirko Stocchetto at Bar Basso in Milan. One other bartender unintentionally positioned a bottle of prosecco the place the gin bottle ought to go.
