Borough Kitchen Champagne Negroni

Champagne takes the place of gin in this festive cocktail from Digital Content Editor Kelly. It's our favourite drink to make for Christmas, New Year's Eve, and the week in between. It's easy to double or triple to make for a party (see 'BK Tips').

Ingredients

75ml sweet vermouth

BK Tips

  • Make this ahead of time by mixing all the ingredients except Champagne. Store in the fridge for up to a week.

  • Chill your glasses before serving, in the fridge or, if it's cold, outside.
