Rome With a View
Campari, dry vermouth, lime and soda — the tallest, easiest aperitivo going.

The Method
How to make it
- 01

- 02
Strain into an ice-filled highball glass.
- 03
Top with cold soda water and stir once, gently, to combine.
- 04
Garnish with a lime wheel.
Bartender's Tip
Add the soda last and stir only once from the bottom. Over-stirring flattens the bubbles and the drink goes lifeless in a minute.
A Little History
Michael McIlroy created Rome With a View at Milk & Honey, and it has quietly become the bartender's shift drink of choice: low in alcohol, high in refreshment, and impossible to get wrong at volume. Lime instead of the usual orange is what keeps it from tasting like an Americano.
