1/2 oz Cynar

Stir with ice, strain into a coupe glass, and garnish with an orange twist.
Two Thursdays ago, I came across an excellent Negroni riff created at the Violet Hour in Chicago by way of the Drink & Drinking blog. This circa 2011 riff bears some similarity to the Toby Maloney's Eeyore's Requiem at the Violet Hour (and E.C.C.'s riff on that, the Winnie the Pooh). Moreover, the Cynar, Campari, and Fernet trilogy has appeared in a few drinks including the Bottecchia from Gaz Regan's The Negroni book.

Adding this to my list of negroni variations!
Tried this variation - 8 autumn later. I realy thought that it would be muddied by too many Ingredients. But instead I found it yo be very satisfying and sophisticated. I'll be adding this variant to list for my negroni loving friends.
Cynar, Campari, and Fernet hit the palate in very different ways so nothing clashes too much. Cynar has a better chance of clashing with the vermouth than the two liqueurs.
