Description

Campari is a bitter Italian apéritif, a type of sweet and sour drink traditionally served before meals to stimulate the appetite. It is a proprietary blend of 68 ingredients, including herbs, roots, and fruit, which are steeped in water and neutral grape spirit to create the distinctive flavor and bright red color. Campari is typically served in a glass with soda water and a slice of orange, a combination known as a "Campari Soda." It is also a key ingredient in several classic cocktails, such as the Negroni and the Americano. Campari has been produced since 1860 by the Campari Group, a multinational beverage company based in Milan, Italy. Over the years, the drink has become a cultural icon in Italy and a popular choice for those looking for a distinctive and refreshing apéritif.
