Enzoni Cocktail, A Marriage Between a Negroni and Gin Sour

I love a Negroni and sour cocktails, so when I heard about the Enzoni cocktail, I had to try it immediately. Oh boy, was it everything I could imagine it could have been.

I am not sure I had a cocktail that had grapes in it before. I have had Pisco and other grappa cocktails but never actual grapes. However, they add an excellent refreshing factor to this drink.

If you haven’t had Campari or are just not a fan, this cocktail is a great way to enjoy it. The bitterness doesn’t overtake the cocktail and adds a complex flavor.
