Campari. What is Campari? The bottle just says 'product of Italy' and 'bitter'. Which is accurate but not that very helpful. If you Google it you get some more help. It is considered an aperitif and is obtained by infusing herbs and fruit in alcohol and water. I, personally, would not want to sip on Campari by itself. Because it is pretty bitter. But it does make some really tasty cocktails.
Siesta Cocktail - very well balanced so the bitter and the sour all come together into a very pleasant cocktail.

| Jungle Bird |
Jungle Bird - is actually slightly sweet with the pineapple juice to counter the Campari
Garibaldi - simple, just orange juice and Campari, it is nice, not as bitter as I thought it would be
Boulevardier - a lot of deep flavors here so it is a rich cocktail, I think if you like

| Siesta |
bourbon you will like this
Old Pal - another bourbon cocktail, this one with dry vermouth which makes it slightly lighter than the Boulevardier
Negroni - a classic, the bright flavor of the gin is a nice counterpoint to the Campari and vermouth

| Garibaldi |
Bobbo's Bride - the sweet peach liquor stops this one from being too bitter, but the Campari is in the
forefront, so it isn't sweet either
Lost Lake - a lot of fruit juice in this one gives it a tropical drink feel, it's tasty but you need a lot of ingredients

| Mojito Italiano |
Venetian Blush - another one that has some specialty ingredients, but it is worth it, this is one of my favorites
Mojito Italiano - the fizz of the soda is replaced by Prosecco, and the Campari adds a little depth
