A margarita for people who don't love Campari on its own - it uses just enough to add bitterness without taking over. Perfect for working through a bottle that's otherwise sitting unused.
1tablespoonsimple syrup(~0.5-0.75 ounces; add to taste)
sugar (optional; to rim the glass)
Instructions
Shake all ingredients in a shaker with ice. Strain into two glasses and serve.
Notes
Don't be tempted to add more Campari; it's just the right level of bitterness as written. Substitute an equal amount of agave for the syrup if desired. To sub sugar, add 2 teaspoons of sugar to the liquid; shake, then let rest 5 minutes to allow it to dissolve. Shake again; sample the drink to see if the sugar is gritty or if it's dissolved.
