Easy Negroni Cocktail Recipe

Last Updated on November 9, 2026 by Mr. B

If you’re looking for a classic drink to mix up at home, this Easy Negroni Cocktail Recipe is exactly what you need. This bitter and refreshing Italian cocktail, created in the 1920s, has only 3 ingredients: Sweet Vermouth, Gin, and Campari.

The best part about making a Negroni at home is that it requires zero mixology skills and no fancy bar equipment. This classic drink relies on a 1:1:1 ratio, meaning you just use equal parts gin, sweet vermouth, and Campari. You don’t even need a cocktail shaker! Just pour your ingredients directly into a lowball glass over ice, give it a quick stir with a spoon, and you’re ready to unwind. Put an orange twist in it and you’re done!

Expressing the orange peel over the glass releases essential citrus oils that perfectly soften the bitter Campari.

A simple alcoholic drinks recipe!
