Americano
Campari

Americano

Bittersweet and herbaceous with bright citrus aromatics from the lemon zest, the Campari's vivid bitterness balanced by the warm, spiced sweetness of vermouth and a crisp, effervescent finish.

Garibaldi Negroni
Gin

Garibaldi Negroni

Bright and bittersweet, with Campari's herbal orange intensity softened by a wave of fresh citrus juice and lifted by gin's botanical depth. Refreshing and approachable, it finishes with lingering bitter orange oils and a dry, pleasantly complex fade.

Garibaldi
Campari

Garibaldi

Bright and refreshingly bitter, with Campari's ruby herbal complexity perfectly balanced by the sunny sweetness of fresh orange juice. Light, vibrant, and dangerously drinkable.

Spritz
Prosecco

Spritz

Bittersweet and vibrantly effervescent, with sun-ripened orange, delicate herbal bitterness, and the crisp, floral lift of Prosecco. Light, refreshing, and dangerously easy to drink.
