Liqueur. Fill the mixing glass half way with ice
(make sure ice is rinsed). Stir for a bit (I usually stir
about 40-50 turns to keep the dilution perfect
to my taste) you can stir longer to reduce the
proof/strength.
Take a double rocks glass and pour a dash of
absinthe into it, rinse the glass with the absinthe
and pour out the excess. Add ice (single 2” X 2”
is our preference) and strain the drink from the

Pecore Negroni

Black Sheep Bistro, Goa
GLASS
Rocks
INGREDIENTS
Equal measures of Campari (1 oz),
Sweet Vermouth (Martini Rosso) (1 oz)
and Instead of Gin, we use a copper
pot double distilled Goan Coconut
feni produced by “Cazulo” (1 oz). It is
herbal and floral.
We also add 3-4 drops of Cashew Feni
infused with Orange for a very subtle
earthy / indigenous type flavor.
16 Cocktails for 2015 • 7 •
METHOD
Stirred on ice with a flamed orange peel. See picture for
effect. We call it “Pecore Negroni” - Pecore meaning Sheep
since it was first made at The Black Sheep Bistro
TASTE
Starts with floral orange and tangerine notes on the
nose. On the palate you will taste citrus and sweet
herbal flavors coming from the sweet vermouth followed
by all the complex aromas and flavors coming from the
Campari with a bitter after taste. Perfect for beginning or
at the end of the meal. This is a serious cocktail involving
complex flavors, and generally not recommended for
the novice drinker. Can be had by itself or with simple
Italian foods. Also goes well with smoked Tandoor items.
