If you make this as described it will be tasty, but it will be pink, not orange. If you substitute Aperol for the Campari it will taste even better, and it will be orange, just like the photo.

I thought this was excellent. I had made another variation whose proportions were wrong, just wrong. This truly both looks and tastes like (adult) pink grapefruit juice. However forget the lemon wheel garnish. I garnished, spritzed, and rimmed it with a pink grapefruit twist, and that *really* put it over the edge. New York Times cooking section, you really ought to check with ME before you publish.

Good with Aperol

I discovered this drink, before I knew that it had an official name, when I was trying to make a Negroni in a house without any sweet vermouth. My version is more like a negroni though, with equal parts campari, contreau and gin with a squeeze of lemon. I am fond of negronis and this is a nice variation that is missing some of the depth that the vermouth gives it, and instead lifts it up with the citrus and orange elements. Try this variation if you like a negroni's bitterness!

I gotta disagree with my distinguished fellow commenters: it’s a much more interesting drink with the bitterness of Campari. We subbed Aperol last night and it was fine, but forgettable. Be bold!

Changed Gin for Norma Gold Rum and Campari for Aperol and it tastes delicious!
