Ciliegia Amara Cocktail with Fabbri Dry Gin

This complex, bittersweet cocktail is ideal for Negroni lovers. Ciliegia amara translates to "bitter cherry," and the drink features Fabbri Dry Gin, distilled with pure Fabbri Amarena distillate, juniper berries, bitter orange peel, licorice root, angelica root, coriander and cardamom. In 1905, Gennaro Fabbri transformed an old grocery store in Portomaggiore, in Ferrara, into a liqueur producer and distributor. Today the company is led by the fifth generation, and Fabbri is synonymous with artisan Italian gelato and a staple at bars around the world.
