The classic Negroni — gin, Campari, and sweet vermouth — with rosemary syrup stirred in to soften the bitterness and add a quiet woodsy note.

This cocktail is part of our Date Nite collection, made to be sipped while you cook together.​

COCKTAIL RECIPE

Makes 1 cocktail

1 oz gin
1 oz Campari
3/4 oz sweet vermouth
1/4 oz rosemary simple syrup
Rosemary sprig, for garnish

Make the rosemary simple syrup using the recipe in Notes from the Bar. Add the gin, Campari, sweet vermouth, and rosemary syrup to a mixing glass with ice and stir for 30 to 45 seconds until well chilled. Strain into a rocks glass over a large ice cube (or regular ice) and garnish with a rosemary sprig.

NOTES FROM THE BAR

Heads up: We may earn a small commission on products we’ve linked here. We only recommend the real-deal favorites from our kitchen.

ROSEMARY SIMPLE SYRUP

Combine 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Add 3 fresh rosemary sprigs and simmer gently for 2 minutes. Remove from heat, steep for 15 minutes, then strain and let cool completely before using. It keeps in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. For a stronger rosemary flavor, steep a little longer.


Gin Choice

Choose a classic London Dry for structure or a citrus-forward gin for brightness.


Vermouth Tip

Use a high-quality sweet vermouth. It’s one-third of your cocktail and makes all the difference.


Syrup Variation

Try thyme or sage syrup for an herbal swap with subtle complexity.


Ice Matters

A large clear ice cube chills the Negroni without watering it down, keeping the flavor bold and balanced. If you want crystal-clear cubes at home, here's a link to our favorite tray for perfect results every time.  → Upgrade your Negroni with this clear ice cube tray


Batch for 6

Combine 6 oz gin, 6 oz Campari, 4½ oz sweet vermouth, and 1½ oz rosemary syrup in a pitcher. Stir over ice before serving.

A RITUAL WE RETURN TO

Our cocktails are part of something bigger for us. They’re the beginning of Date Nite, a connection-centered experience we created to help you slow down, share a meal, and enjoy time with the one you love.

​

Each Date Nite is thoughtfully planned for you, so you are not stuck deciding what to cook or how to pull the night together. We pair one cocktail with a complete menu, a simple flow from prep to plate, and small details that make the evening feel easy and connected from start to finish.

​

It is not about perfection. It is about presence, and creating space to reconnect, whether that is with your partner or simply with yourself, over a really good meal.
