Authentic Campari Cocktails in London
Offering seven variations of the Negroni, there’s something for every palate at the The Alchemist Monument’s Negroni bar, whether you’re a seasoned aficionado or a newcomer to the cocktail’s bold flavours.
Obviously the Classic Negroni (£13) is irresistible, and here you’re served a faultless mix of Campari, Millers gin, and Martini Rubino, balanced to perfection.
However, the real star of the show, and the Negroni you should order next, is the Barrel-Aged Negroni (£15). It’s a bolder, more matured version of the staple, crafted from Campari, Tanqueray 10 gin, Regal Bold Red vermouth, aged in a red wine and port barrel, for additional complexity and richness.
It’s less frivolous than its sibling, and offers a greater depth of flavour.
There’s also the Pressurised Negroni (£14), created from Campari, Millers gin, Martini Rubino, Grand Marnier, embellished with chocolate cookie and chocolate orange; the Negroni Sour (£13), a slightly tart variation, a lemon, honey and citrus cordial, and the Negroni Paradiso (14), which offers a sunnier take, with coconut washed Millers gin, tropical vermouth, pineapple and coconut.
Also on the menu is the No-Groni (£10), a non-alcoholic version, and the Campari Spritz (£13), a light and refreshing introduction, with prosecco and soda.
To complement these cocktails, the Negroni Bar also offers a selection of small plates, including chicken waffles, and bao buns.
