Pro Tips
-
Use a high-quality gin with strong botanical notes to stand up to the Campari and syrup.
-
Make your own chocolate-orange syrup by combining cocoa powder, sugar, water, and orange zest simmered briefly, then strained and cooled.
-
Chill your rocks glass in advance to keep the drink cool longer without over-dilution.
