Do you love Campari? If so, how do you drink it?

Question

I am totally crazy about Campari. I like to drink it neat and well chilled. I also don't mind it with some ice.

Answer 1

Yes. Usually, with orange juice.

Now and then, I'll hit on a place with excellent orange juice that'll also put in just the right quantities of Campari, juice, and ice -- and these sorts of kind people usually add a little orange slice to the side of the glass, too, in which case I'm a customer for life.

Mixing it with OJ seems to add another dimension to the taste; very, very vaguely apricot-y, sometimes.

That said, soda water's fine too... Lemonade isn't a bad alternative, though.

Answer 2

I adore Campari! On the rocks is great, but my favorite is Campari + Soda. Yummm.

Answer 3

I've never had it, but one of my customers ordered it with Orange Juice (a Campari screwdriver).
