1/2 oz Campari
1/2 oz Dolin Blanc Vermouth
1/2 oz Amaro Montenegro
Stir with ice, strain into a double old fashioned glass with a large ice cube, and garnish with orange oil from a twist.
Two Thursdays ago, I ventured to Backbar for their Harry Potter Week menu. There, I found a seat in front of bartender Alexis Vazquez and asked him for the Nearly Headless Nickroni. While the name reminded me of the layered Knickroni, it was actually a Boulevardier tribute created by Sam Treadway to a wizard, Sir Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington, who gained the name Nearly Headless Nick after a failed execution via decapitation. The drink's combination of Campari and Amaro Montenegro reminded me of Paul Manzelli's Monte Cassino and Montenegroni at Bergamot though.
