    I prefer mine with a twist of lemon.

    I prefer spritz, or macchiato, or bicicletta: just fill three quarters of
    the glass with white sparkling wine, then fill it to the rim with campari.
    Spritz is Venice's name for this concoction.

    Oh! You know Campari? We often make a drink with it: "Negroni" (1/3 Campari;
    1/3 gin; 1/3 red Martini). It's very good with appetizers, but a little
    strong!

    That sounds great, I will try it today (we have 102 degree weather, so
    cold drinks are in demand!)

    LOL, Negroni! Ever tried the "sbagliato" (wrong) version? I don't remember
    which was the difference...

    Many of us know campari. I drank campari and soda when I was in my
    20's, but not anymore.

    No I have never tried "Sbagliato". perhaps is only Campari and Martini
    without gin. Or Campari and gin with red wine in place of Martini.
    I don't know 🙂

    Cane sugar: About half of the nation's cane sugar (but none of its
    beet sugar) is whitened using bone char, a powder made by burning
    animal bones. All the bone char is removed before packaging, but some
    vegans might still have a problem with sugar that was produced using
    an animal product. Most, but not all, cane sugar is labeled as such,
    so something called just "sugar" probably came from beets.

    I prefer Pimm's 1 to Campari.
    en.wikipedia.orgPimm's

    There are some certain individuals who will go unnamed who would
    rather ingest live beetles than dead beets.

    Friendly's red raspberry ice cream contains beets.

    No, but I'll give it a try. Do you prefer it with gin or would vodka
    be better?

    Negroni

    Ingredients:
    - 1 oz gin
    - 1 oz Sweet Vermouth
    - 1 oz Campari
    - Garnish: Orange Twist

    potent. Don't forget a piece of orange peel, twisted.

    Gin, definitely. It is just not the same with vodka. Mix up a whole bunch
    and keep it in a bottle. Then chill with ice, strain into a glass.

    Yes, I also like Negronis. Pandy,if you ever come and visit with me I
    will pour you many Negronis. ;=} One of my Campari favorites is the
    following:

    1/3 Campari
    1/3 red Martini
    1/3 sparkling water

    Pour all three over ice and stir. Add a lemon twist, after rubbing the
    rim of the glass with it, and top with a brandy float. Years ago, in
    San Francisco, this was known as a "Campari Cocktail" but I have also
    seen it called an Americano. Back then, Campari was called "Italian
    Coca-Cola".
