Forest Elixir
Diving into the deeper, richer and bolder flavours that forest botanicals offer, this Negroni is a perfect blend of bitter, sweet and citrus. The arctic flavours of the gin enhance the herbs in the Green Chartreuse, while the sweet vermouth brings it all into harmony. Make this cocktail with Ungava Gin, Carpano Antica Formula Vermouth, Chartreuse Green.Ingredients
