How to Make THE Negroni and the Goat

Brought to you by Cider Mill Press

The chef Stephanie Izard created this drink as the June 2014 Negroni of the

Month for the restaurant Nostrana, in Portland, Oregon. The name is a reference

to the Chicago restaurant Girl & the Goat, where Ms. Izard is the executive

chef. The substitution of Aperol for Campari makes for a gentler drink, while the

addition of Averna, a Sicilian amaro, lends a sturdy bottom note.
