Ingredients:

1 oz Genever

1 oz Taktser

1 oz Sweet Vermouth

Garnish with Orange Peel


Instructions:

  1. Add all the ingredients into a mixing glass with ice and stir until chilled.

  2. Strain into a rock glass with 1 large ice cubes.

  3. Garnish with an orange peel

Extra points:

Infuse the genever with rooibos to get an extra South African flair.


1 tablespoon rooibos : 1 cup genever for at least 2 hours




The surname Negroni is derived from the Italian word “negri” which means “black.” It was most likely originally a nickname for someone with a dark complexion, or perhaps for an immigrant from Africa. I like to think of this twist on a Negroni to be a nod to an old friendship between the 14th Dalai Lama and Desmond Tutu. The genever is for the Dutch influence in South Africa, The Sweet Vermouth is for the Italian name, and Taktser is for the spirit of friendship.

The imagery and pacing in this piece made it a very engaging read. It felt personal and immersive. I’ve seen creative https://citylineairconditioning.com/furnace-repair-richardson-tx/ writing with a similar tone on a citylineairconditioning-related blog.

A beautifully written piece that evokes a strong sense of place. The imagery is subtle but effective. I came across a travel-style reflection on a https://cabriostructures.com/ based review blog.
