Americano

The Americano cocktail originated in late 19th century Italy, initially named 'Milan-Turin.' It is made with Campari, sweet red vermouth, and soda water, known for its red appearance and slightly bitter taste. It gained its name due to the fondness of American tourists and was also the first drink ordered by James Bond in 'Casino Royale.'

Flavor
The Americano cocktail perfectly blends the herbal bitterness of Campari with the sweetness of sweet red vermouth, and the addition of sparkling soda water makes it refreshingly pleasant.
