Tip 1: Use a big-on-flavour gin so that the taste of the gin shines through in the mix.&nbsp;
Tip 2: Vermouth is an essential and equal part of the negroni mix, and should not be taken lightly. Always use a high quality vermouth. &nbsp;
Tip 3: The orange peel is important for its oils, and is not there to just add to the colour of the cocktail or for its visual appeal. Twist the peel to release the oils into your negroni.&nbsp;
