Italy, 24%
Campari is an Italian alcoholic liqueur,considered an aperitif (20.5%,21%,24%,25% or 28.5% ABV,depending on the country where it is sold),obtained from the infusion of herbs and fruit (including chinotto and cascarilla) in alchohol and water.It is a type of bitters,characterised by its dark red colour.
Campari is often used in cocktails and is commonly served with soda water or citrus juice (most often pink grapefruit juice),often garnished with either blood orange or blood lime slice (mainly in Australia) or mixed with prosecco as a spritz.It is produced by the Davide Campari Group,a multinational company based in Italy.
Campari is an essential ingredient in the classic Negroni cocktail,the Garibaldi,the Americano (which was named at a time when few Americans were aware of Campari) and the spritz (an aperitif popular in northern Italy).So too with the Boulevardier.
In the Italian market,Campari mixed with soda water is sold in individual bottles as Campari Soda (10% alcohol by volume).Campari Soda is packaged in a distinctive bottle that was designed by Fortunato Depero in 1932.
