Domaine de Canton Ginger Negroni

For most of my life, I hated ginger. I was convinced I was allergic to it. Once, while near-violently seasick on a boating trip in Hawaii, a crewmember offered me a ginger candy to calm my seasickness. In a way, it worked: I threw up immediately.

A year or so ago, something inexplicable happened and I cannot pinpoint the moment in time. Now, I sit happily scoffing down pickled ginger like candy at the sushi bar. Forget the sushi, give me the sweet, sour, and spicy pickled ginger. 

Bored of my usual negroni variants, I searched for an appealing way to combine my love of negronis with the newfound passion for ginger. This led me to a recipe on the Domain de Canton website.

The recipe is straightforward: equal parts Domaine de Canton, Campari, and Gin.

And it’s delicious.
