Instructions

Description: The Yuletide Vermilion is a festive twist on the classic Negroni, embodying the spirit of Christmas with its rich red color and aromatic spices. This cocktail blends the traditional bitterness of Campari with the warmth of spiced gin and a hint of sweetness from a mulled wine reduction, creating a seasonal libation that's both comforting and sophisticated. Ingredients: - 1 oz Spiced Gin (a gin infused with holiday spices such as cinnamon, cloves, and orange peel) - 1 oz Campari - 1 oz Sweet Vermouth - 0.5 oz Mulled Wine Reduction (made by gently simmering mulled wine until it thickens into a syrup) - Orange peel (for garnish) - Cinnamon stick (for garnish) - Star anise (optional, for garnish) Glass: Serve in an old-fashioned glass. Instructions: 1. Prepare your mulled wine reduction in advance by simmering your favorite mulled wine on low heat until it reduces by half, then cool it down. 2. In a mixing glass filled with ice, combine the spiced gin, Campari, and sweet vermouth. 3. Stir well until the outside of the mixing glass feels cold. 4. Strain the mixture into your old-fashioned glass over a large ice cube. 5. Drizzle the mulled wine reduction over the top to add a layer of sweetness and depth. 6. Express the oils of an orange peel over the glass, then drop it in. 7. Garnish with a cinnamon stick and optionally add a star anise for a more festive presentation. 8. Serve immediately, stirring gently before the first sip to integrate the mulled wine reduction. The Yuletide Vermilion delivers a spirited combination of bitter, sweet, and spice, perfect for toasting to the holidays. Enjoy this innovative take on the Negroni by the fireside or at a festive gathering!
