Instructions

Fill a mixing glass or cocktail shaker with ice.
Pour in the gin, sweet vermouth, and Campari.
Stir well for about 30 seconds until the drink is very cold.
Strain into an ice-filled rocks glass.
Use a small serrated knife to cut a strip of orange peel (about 1 inch / 2.5 cm). A little pith is fine.
Twist the peel over the drink to express the oils, then discard or drop it in. Optionally, add a slice of orange.
