Cocktail Description
The Rum Negroni transforms the classic Italian cocktail into a Caribbean-inspired masterpiece that balances bitter complexity with tropical warmth.
This sophisticated variation substitutes the traditional gin with Plantation 3 Stars White Rum, maintaining the cocktail's bold character while introducing subtle notes of vanilla and tropical fruit. The interplay between the rum's brightness, Campari's distinctive bitterness, and the sweet vermouth's herbal richness creates a remarkably balanced drink that's both familiar and refreshingly different. Perfect for warm summer evenings or as an appetite-stimulating aperitif before dinner, the Rum Negroni works beautifully alongside tapas, grilled seafood, or spicy Caribbean dishes. Despite its complex flavor profile, it's surprisingly straightforward to prepare—simply stir the ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled coupe glass. The finishing touch of expressed orange zest adds a fragrant citrus note that ties the whole drink together, making this a stunning option for both Negroni enthusiasts looking to expand their horizons and rum lovers ready to explore bitter-forward cocktails.
