Garibaldi Cocktail

How to Make Garibaldi Cocktail

1. 1

   Step 1: Prepare glass and ice

   Choose two highball glasses (or a large tumbler) and fill each glass with ice cubes until nicely chilled. If you prefer a less-diluted drink, use a single large ice cube per glass instead.

   For this step

   • 8 cubesIce cubes
   
2. 2

   Step 2: Measure and pour Campari

   Measure 1.5 oz (45 ml) Campari per serving and pour it evenly over the ice in each glass. Pouring the bitter component first helps the juice layer through for a pretty, natural mix.

   For this step

   • 3 ozCampari
   
3. 3

   Step 3: Add fresh orange juice

   Top each glass with 4.5 oz (135 ml) freshly squeezed orange juice, pouring slowly to preserve color separation briefly. Freshly squeezed juice is key — it brightens and softens Campari better than store-bought.

   For this step

   • 9 ozFreshly squeezed orange juice
   
4. 4

   Step 4: Finish with soda and stir

   If you like a slightly lighter finish, top each drink with about 1 oz (30 ml) club soda and gently stir once or twice to integrate. For a truer classic Garibaldi skip the soda and serve unstirred for a bolder Campari-orange contrast.

   For this step

   • 2 ozClub soda (optional, to top)
   
5. 5

   Step 5: Garnish and serve

   Express an orange peel over each glass to release oils, drop the twist in, and add an orange wheel to the rim if desired. Serve immediately while chilled and aromatic.

   For this step

   • 2 twistOrange peel (twist) for garnish
   • 2 wheelOrange wheel for garnish (optional)
