Drink of The Week: Rosita Cocktail

by Negronis Greg

 

 

Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to the Rosita. Now, some folks might call it a tequila Negroni, but trust me when I say, that's like calling a Ferrari just a car. This drink, my friends, is so much more than a simple comparison.

You see, both the Rosita and the Negroni share a few key ingredients – tequila, Campari, and vermouth. But here's where things get interesting. The Rosita takes that vermouth and divides it right down the middle, adding equal parts of sweet and dry vermouth into the mix. It's like a symphony of flavors, a Perfect Negroni in its own right.

But wait, there's more! This cocktail doesn't stop there. It throws in a dash of Angostura bitters, like a secret ingredient that elevates the bittersweet dance to a whole new level. It's like adding a pinch of magic to an already enchanting concoction.

So, next time you're in the mood for something beyond the ordinary, give the Rosita a try. It's a modern classic that deserves to be savored and appreciated for its complexity and depth of flavors. Cheers, my friends, to the Rosita – a cocktail that defies simple explanations and invites you on a journey of taste and discovery.
