Ingredients

Spiced Syrup

  • 200 g demerara sugar
  • 300 ml water
  • 1 cinnamon stick small
  • 3 cloves
  • 2 oranges zested

Negroni

  • 25 ml Campari
  • 25 ml red vermouth
  • 25 ml mezcal
  • 10 ml spiced syrup

Instructions

  • To make the spiced syrup, put the sugar and 300ml water in a small saucepan with the cinnamon stick and cloves. Add the orange zest and simmer until the sugar has dissolved. Turn off the heat and leave to infuse for 30 minutes. Transfer to a 500ml sterilised jar – the syrup will now keep for weeks in the fridge.
