More About This Recipe

  • The Americano was popular in Italy's cafes during the mid 1800s, where you'll find it being sipped to this day. The blend of Campari and vermouth is meant for drinkers who aren't afraid to explore the bitter side of the palate. If you have the ingredients handy a properly poured beverage should take less than a minute to make, and the mix makes a good daytime drink since the main ingredients aren't as boozy as vodka or gin.
