The Smoked Rosemary Negroni

A theatrical, aromatic twist on the beloved classic. Infuse your Negroni with the captivating scent of toasted rosemary and dark citrus.

Welcome to the GND Recipes Library! The Negroni is already a masterpiece of flavor, but adding a sensory, aromatic element takes it to a completely new level. By introducing the scent of smoldering rosemary, you create a rustic, woodsy atmosphere that pairs beautifully with the bitter Campari and botanical gin.

Recipe Details

  • Prep Time: 4 Minutes

  • Servings: 1 Drink

  • Difficulty: Medium

Ingredients

  • 1 oz London Dry Gin

  • 1 oz Campari

  • 1 oz Sweet Vermouth

  • 1 Fresh rosemary sprig (for smoking)

  • Ice (one large cube preferred)

  • GND Orange Slices for garnish

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Smoke the glass: Carefully ignite the tip of a fresh rosemary sprig using a lighter or kitchen torch. Once it's smoking well, place it on a fire-safe surface and invert your rocks glass over it to trap the smoke. Leave it for 30 seconds.

  2. Mix the drink: While the glass is smoking, combine the gin, Campari, and sweet vermouth in a separate mixing pitcher with ice. Stir for 20 seconds.

  3. Pour: Flip your smoked glass over, add one large ice cube, and immediately strain the Negroni into the glass.

  4. Garnish: Garnish with a fresh sprig of rosemary and a beautiful dehydrated orange slice tucked next to the ice.

💡 GND Pro-Tip: The smoky, piney aroma of the rosemary needs a sweet, bright contrast. A GND dehydrated Orange Slice is essential here; it provides that classic Negroni citrus profile while looking much more refined than a standard fresh peel. 👉 Shop GND Orange Slices
