An aperitif cocktail that doesn’t fail in any season is the Negroni. If you haven’t experienced this combination of gin, Campari and sweet vermouth, you need to get out more, but you also need to have a go at the Negroni Spagliato. This interpretation takes the original ingredients and gives them a cheeky tickle along with some vivacious Prosecco. For those playing along at home, pour 20mls of the gin, Campari and sweet vermouth into a tall glass full of ice, give it a stir to mix, and charge the lot with a good splash of quality Prosecco. Garnish the crimson beauty with a large, proud slice of orange and enjoy. Two of these will set you up perfectly for a meal. Five, and you may not find your table!
