COCKTAIL RECIPE
Makes 1 cocktail
1 1/2 oz Campari
1 1/2 oz sweet vermouth
3 oz club soda
Orange twist and fresh rosemary sprig, for garnish
Fill a rocks glass with large ice cubes, add the Campari and sweet vermouth, and stir gently to combine. Top with club soda and give it one more light stir. Express a large orange twist over the glass, drop it in, and garnish with a fresh 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.
SWEET VERMOUTH
Vermouth matters more than people think in a drink this simple. We like Carpano Antica or Dolin Rouge — both bring a rich, slightly herbal sweetness that plays beautifully with the Campari. Avoid anything too cheap or the bitterness can turn sharp.
THE ORANGE TWIST
Express the peel over the glass before dropping it in. Pinch it skin-side down over the drink and you'll see a fine mist of orange oil hit the surface. It adds a subtle citrus aroma that makes a real difference in such a simple cocktail.
ICE CHOICE
Use large ice cubes if you have them. They melt slower, keep the drink cold longer, and look beautiful in a rocks glass. A clear ice tray is worth the investment for a cocktail like this. → Shop our favorite clear ice cube tray
THE ROSEMARY GARNISH
The rosemary is optional but we love it here. It adds an herbal, slightly woodsy note that plays well with the bittersweet Campari. Give the sprig a gentle slap between your palms before garnishing to release the oils.
CLUB SODA VS SPARKLING WATER
Club soda is the classic choice and what we recommend. It has a clean, neutral fizz that doesn't compete with the other flavors. Sparkling water works in a pinch but avoid anything with added flavor.

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.
