End of Summer

by Lance Wong

A bittersweet, savory negroni riff for the turn of the season.

Intermediate · 3 min

Empirical Symphony 6 takes the gin's place, bringing juicy, herbal warmth without juniper. Strawberry amaro and tomato vermouth give the classic its sweet, bitter and savory balance, with a touch of Aperol and a strawberry-coffee hydrosol on top. Stirred and served in a pony glass, with no garnish.
