NEGRONI SBAGLIATO

The "Sbagliato,"  Italian for "mistaken", was born out of a bartender accidentally grabbing a bottle of sparkling wine when he reached for gin to make a Negroni. His mistake is now a classic aperitivo that combines bitter, sweet, and bubbly for a perfect pre-dinner (or pre-bunch) drink. Like a classic Negroni, it follows a 1:1:1 recipe, making it as easy to remember as it is delicious.
