The Classic Negroni Sbagliato
What is a Negroni Sbagliato?
The traditional Negroni Sbagliato is a tasty Italian cocktail that happened by accident. A bartender in Milan once mixed sparkling wine instead of gin in a Negroni, creating the "mistaken" (Sbagliato) Negroni. This drink mixes Campari, sweet vermouth, and sparkling wine, making a bitter yet refreshing cocktail for any occasion.
