Ginger Fig Negroni
The Ginger Fig Negroni offers a unique twist on the classic Italian Negroni cocktail by infusing it with the warmth of fresh ginger and the natural sweetness of figs. Traditionally composed of equal parts gin, sweet vermouth, and Campari, this version introduces fig syrup crafted to perfection, enhancing the drink's complexity without overpowering the essential bitterness that Negronis are revered for.
Tips & Notes
- Homemade fig syrup can be created by simmering fresh or dried figs with sugar and water until thickened, then straining.
- Fresh ginger adds a spicy, invigorating bite. Use freshly grated for best flavor and aroma.
- Double straining the cocktail removes any fibrous ginger pieces, yielding a smooth sip.
