Mutticano Cocktail Recipe

Mutticano Cocktail
Difficulty: Easy | Total Time: | Makes: 1 drink

A play on the Americano cocktail, this bittersweet drink recipe was developed to serve at the fourth annual Joie de Mutt fund-raiser for San Francisco’s senior dog rescue, Muttville. This light and refreshing mix of vodka, Campari, fresh orange juice, and club soda makes a simple and sophisticated apéritif.

Game plan: If you’re making a batch of this cocktail ahead of time, mix the vodka, Campari, and OJ together and refrigerate, then add the soda and garnish just before serving.

INGREDIENTS
  • 1 part vodka
  • 3/4 part Campari
  • 1 part freshly squeezed orange juice, chilled
  • Ice
  • Club soda
  • Orange twist, for garnish
INSTRUCTIONS
Place the vodka, Campari, and orange juice in a cocktail shaker and stir to combine. Fill a rocks glass with ice and pour in the mixture. Add just a splash of soda and garnish with the orange twist.

    Love this drink!! Drank it at the Muttville Senior Dog Rescue event this summer, made some last weekend for dinner guests (who brought their dogs). So clever and so good...

    Sounds like what was called a basic "screwdriver" in the old days. OJ and vodka.

    Sometimes vodka is great to dilute strong flavors like Campari, instead of just using more soda or water. Its a great carrier for other flavors. This is a good example of that. Would be great with gin instead too!
