Master The Classics: Garibaldi

The Garibaldi is one of my all time favorite Highball drinks and it is so simple and so refreshing. I also want to note that those who claim to dislike Campari would do well to order this one, the flavors are paired so well (Campari and Orange is an obvious pairing) that I think you might be surprised by this one. A perfect brunch drink!

This cocktail was named after the Italian General Guiseppe Garibaldi who contributed to Italian Risorgimento (resurgence) which led to the unification of the country in 1871. He is considered one of the greatest Generals of all time. The name of the cocktail comes from the "unification" of Campari from Northern Italy and Oranges from Southern Italy.

Campari is a product created by Carmine Campari around 1860 and hails from Novara Northern Italy. It's distinctive red color was originally extracted by using crushed cochineal insects, but don't worry the process has changed since those early days and now it is vegetarian! Also when in season you can use blood oranges to make this a little more authentic and you'll get wonderful flavor and color. alright that's all I got for this one! Enjoy it!

For this Garibaldi we are employing a technique created by Naren Young of the bar Dante in NYC. When he makes Garibaldis he runs the Orange Juice through a high speed Juicer (A Breville I believe) this aerates the orange juice and makes it fluffy. I use a lower tech approach here (since I don't have the juicer) and give the orange juice a good old shake in a tin to get the same effect.
