Questions

What is Negroni?

A beautifully balanced Italian aperitivo made with equal parts gin, sweet vermouth, and Campari. Bittersweet, aromatic, and sophisticated with a rich ruby color. This reference files it under Italian alcoholic drink: made without cooking, rated easy and about 3 minutes start to finish.

Can I make Negroni without alcohol?

The alcohol here is 1 oz London dry gin, 1 oz sweet vermouth and 1 oz Campari. Replace a base spirit with the same volume of a zero-proof spirit, or with chilled tea or tonic for bite; replace sparkling wine with sparkling water and a squeeze of citrus. Keep every other line as written, and expect a lighter, sweeter drink, since alcohol also carries bitterness and body.

Is Negroni low-carb?

A serving of Negroni carries 19 g of carbohydrate, 1 g of it fiber. Against a strict 20 g keto day that is 95 percent of the budget; against a moderate 100 g low-carb day it is 19 percent.

How many calories are in Negroni?

One serving (the recipe makes 1) is about 195 calories, with 9 g protein, 19 g carbohydrate and 9 g fat, plus 1 g fiber and 250 mg sodium. The figures are estimates computed from the ingredient list.

Can I batch Negroni for a group?

Yes. As written it serves 1. Halved, the gin drops from 1 oz to 1/2 oz; doubled, it is 2 oz. Every line in this entry carries its half and double quantity, and the app's batch dial rewrites them inside each step. To batch it for a crowd, multiply everything but add the ice only when serving.
