Follow along through every stage of preparation and baking.
Combine Equal Parts in Mixing Glass
In a cocktail mixing glass filled with ice cubes, add equal parts: 30 ml London dry gin, 30 ml Campari, and 30 ml sweet red vermouth.
Stir for Silky Dilution
Stir smoothly and continuously with a bar spoon for 25-30 seconds until the mixture is ice cold and properly diluted.
Strain over Hand-Cut Ice Block
Place a single large clear ice block into a chilled double rocks glass, then strain the luminous red cocktail over the cube.
Express Orange Twist Oils
Gently twist a wide swath of orange peel over the glass to release essential fragrant citrus oils across the surface, rub around the glass rim, drop it in, and serve.
