  1. You can easily scale up the amount of negroni to fill more bottles – the beauty of cocktails is that the ratios are easily multiplied or divided. If you fancy just making a small one for yourself, divide the gin, vermouth, Campari and chocolate liqueur by 10, then add a single dash of bitters and a twist of orange peel to garnish.

  2. The negroni will keep indefinitely but is best enjoyed within 6 months. Shake the bottle before pouring.

  3. Bottle-aged cocktails are a no-brainer for homemade gifts. In the bottle, the various flavours have time to mingle and mellow, resulting in a seriously smooth sip once poured over ice.
