When you think of drinks associated with James Bond, a certain “shaken” beverage probably comes to mind. Indeed, the martini has become so intertwined with 007 that it’s hard to picture him sipping anything else. However, if you go back to Fleming’s original novels, you’ll soon discover Bond had a fondness for the Americano cocktail.

If you want to taste one of Bond’s favorite drinks, why not whip up this Italian aperitif at home? Not only is this cocktail simple, it also pairs nicely with our citrus-flavored CBD oil. We bet you’ll feel as suave as Sean Connery while sipping this appetite-inducing CBD cocktail!

If you’ve never had Campari before, then you must prepare for a bitter flavor experience. Even cocktail enthusiasts admit Campari is an acquired taste, so it might take a few tries to refine your palate.

For those who can’t stomach the strength of Campari, consider substituting with the milder Aperol. Like Campari, Aperol is an Italian aperitif, but it’s nowhere near as strong. Of course, you could also add a few extra drops of our citrus CBD oilto make your Americano more palatable.

It’s also worth noting you could serve the Americano in either a highball or a rocks glass. Although we use a highball in this recipe, feel free to opt for a rocks glass if you want a more potent cocktail.

CBD Americano Cocktail

CBD Americano Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 oz Campari
  • 1 oz sweet vermouth
  • 1 dropperful Tribe CBD oil (citrus)
  • About 4 oz seltzer water
  • Orange peel

Directions

  • Place a few ice cubes in a highball glass
  • Pour Campari, sweet vermouth, and Tribe CBD oil
  • Top with your desired amount of seltzer water
  • Garnish with an orange peel

Since you only need about one ounce of Campari and vermouth in most cocktails, new customers often ask how long these products last. In the case of Campari, we have good news: a bottle could last as long as five years if you store it in a cool, dark area. On the other hand, vermouth only lasts about three months when placed in the fridge.
