When you take a sip of carbonated water and hold it in your mouth, it should start to hurt after about 3 seconds. Depending on where you live, the supermarket brand of cans is often the best choice. Fever Tree and Q are expensive, but great. of cocktail, so mineral waters like San Pelegrino or Perrier, while great with lunch, are simply too flat for cocktail work. of soda water has to provide enough carbonation for 7 oz. Soda water: The only way in which choice of soda or seltzer water truly matters is in terms of carbonation: You want something with big, ripping bubbles. My advice is to just use what you’ve got. My personal favorite for Americanos is Carpano Antica, more muscular than most vermouths and the weight is welcome here, but that can change based on mood. These two ingredients adore each other and pretty much all sweet vermouths work here, so the differences between brands aren’t correct or incorrect so much as they fall to personal taste. Sweet vermouth: Since the moment Campari was invented in 1860, it’s had a heedless love of sweet vermouth. Top with soda water, stir to combine, and garnish with an orange peel. Americano CocktailĬombine Campari and sweet vermouth in a tall glass over rocks. It’s about the whole experience, and what comes next. As a standalone cocktail, the low proof and light sweetness can feel incomplete, off balance as if it’s leaning forward, but when positioned before a meal, you see that an Americano is incomplete the way a drumroll is incomplete, or a preamble, or foreplay. You want complex but not too demanding, some alcohol but not too punchy. You want light, bright, bubbly, and a little bitter. Campari, the sharply bitter, candy-red Italian liqueur, is often thought of as the original aperitivo, and the Americano- Campari, sweet vermouth, and soda water-is its platonic ideal.īefore dinner, you don’t want something full-proof, lest it blow out your palate, or too intense, lest it distract from the upcoming meal. With dinner comes wine, of course, and after the meal, there are digestivos, even more bitter herbs in even more alcohol, to help with digestion. Before a meal, there is an aperitivo, bitter herbs infused into a little alcohol help stimulate the appetite. In Italian culture, eating and drinking are seen largely as two arms of one culinary experience, meant to be enjoyed concurrently. For all their similarities, the Americano has its own niche that it carved out long ago, and it dominates that niche in a way even the mighty Negroni can’t touch.
Americanos aren’t attempting to compete with Negronis, and never have been. And while that’s not entirely incorrect, it misses the actual important part of the Americano.
In spite of this, or perhaps because of it, the Americano is seen too often as if it’s something in the fossil record, like homo erectus, a necessary stepping stone in the evolutionary service of giving us a Negroni. In the drinks world, the Negroni gets most of the press, and justifiably so many of us consider it the perfect cocktail, and it commands universal respect in the industry.
