AMERICANO

The Negroni is enjoying a moment now. For bartenders and barflies, this deliciously complex mix of Campari, gin and sweet vermouth has become an easy way to fly one's flag as a knowing cocktail classicist. But the drink's rising profile has cast a shadow over its once-popular progenitor, the Americano. Without this refreshing Italian-born highball - Campari, sweet vermouth and club soda - there would have been no blueprint for the gin-loving Count Camillo Negroni to experiment with a century ago. (The drink's family line actually goes back even farther; the Americano grew out of a simpler aperitif that omitted the soda, called the Milano-Torino - Milano in honor of the birthplace of Campari, Torino for the vermouth.) While the Americano doesn't have quite the romance that's grown around the Negroni, it also doesn't have nearly as much alcohol. It's a lighter and saner choice for summertime drinking. A pitcher of Americanos enjoyed on the back patio during a hot afternoon will not leave you down for the, uh, count.

Yield 1 drink

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 1/2 ounces Campari
1 1/2 ounces sweet vermouth
Club soda
Orange twist, for garnish

Steps:

  • Combine 1 1/2 ounces Campari with 1 1/2 ounces sweet vermouth in a highball glass filled with ice. Top with club soda. Garnish with a generous orange twist.

Tips:

  • Select high-quality oranges: Choose oranges that are heavy for their size, have a smooth, unblemished skin, and a deep orange color.
  • Wash oranges thoroughly: Before using oranges, wash them thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt, pesticides, or wax.
  • Zest oranges carefully: When zesting oranges, use a fine grater and avoid grating the white pith, which can be bitter.
  • Use fresh orange juice: Fresh orange juice is the best choice for making arancio americano. Avoid using bottled or store-bought orange juice, as it may contain preservatives or added sugar.
  • Strain the orange juice: Before using orange juice in the recipe, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any pulp or seeds.
  • Chill the mixture before churning: Before churning the ice cream mixture, chill it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight. This will help the ice cream freeze more evenly and smoothly.
  • Churn the ice cream according to the manufacturer's instructions: Different ice cream makers have different instructions for churning. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to ensure that the ice cream is churned properly.
  • Transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container: Once the ice cream is churned, transfer it to a freezer-safe container and freeze it for at least 4 hours before serving.
