Cooking Notes
I drink Negronis all year long and this is a good alternative when I want to lay off the booze. The Garibaldi is not a real alcoholic drink, of course, but it’s very good if you use good orange juice and bitters, and lots of ice. A bit of seltzer water can lighten it up if the juice is too sweet.
Easy, drinkable, unremarkable. I made one and then riffed on a second one.
Very nice. The foamy frothy juice over ice is yum.
I eyeballed the juices, measured the campari, and added a little seltzer at the end, perfect summer cocktail!
Lyre's has good alcohol free bitter liqueurs, and All the Bitters has alcohol free orange bitters.
Amazing Cocktail!! I just added 1 teaspoon of homemade simple syrup.
This Campari-Orange, a staple italian drink under a fancy name.

Sometimes you can make it less sweet with some tonic water. Also you can make it alike a negroni (no offense) with some Cinzano and gin
That's a description of a Bronx cocktail plus campari.

I can see why, its only campari and fruit juice. I wonder if some gin would help?
It would do well, as Chris pointed out, with some more complexity, though I wonder whether it is a desirable riff on an Americano, which seems to suit the nature of Campari's flavour profile better.
