Two variants of the Negroni, both popular in Italy, also exist:
* the Negroni sbagliato (wrong Negroni), where the gin is substituted with spumante brut. It was invented at Bar Basso in Milan:
* the Negroski, where gin is substituted with vodka.
There are two common recipes for a Negroni. Both are served on the rocks with a twist of orange. The authentic recipe is apparently equal measures of gin, red vermouth and Campari. A less authentic, but also less mouth-puckering, recipe is equal measures of gin, red vermouth and white vermouth.

Nagroni
- 1 oz Gin
- 1 oz Sweet Vermouth
- 1 oz Campari
- Garnish: Lemon Twist

Original Negroni Recipe
- 1 oz Gin
- 1 oz Campari
- 3/4 oz Sweet Vermouth
Combine all ingredients in an ice filled shaker. Shake until well chilled and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a burnt orange. To make a burnt orange, cut about a 1 1/2 inch by 1 inch peel off a ripe navel orange. Be sure to get just the skin and as little of the pitch as possible. Holding the orange peel between thumb and index fingers with skin facing out, hold a lit match over the glass and with the orange peel about an inch away from the fame squeeze the peel quickly and firmly between your fingers. When done correctly, a burst of flame will come from the oils being released from the peel leaving an aroma and adding a note of orange to the cocktail. Simply drop the twist in the drink.

According to the most popular origin story, the Negroni was invented in Florence, Italy in the early 1920s. It was named for Count Camillo Negroni, the man who invented it by asking a bartender to add gin to the Americano, his favorite drink. However, the word Negroni doesn't appear in English cocktail guides before 1947, so the drink's true origins are uncertain.
The Negroni is an apéritif, or pre-dinner cocktail, intended to stimulate the drinker's appetite.
