It's the original 1:1:1 classic cocktail (equal parts gin, vermouth, and Campari), but Chiltern Firehouse in London tweaked the ratio on this bittersweet Italian classic. Adding extra gin makes the cocktail a bit more balanced for the modern palate.

Ingredients
Preparation
Step 1
Stir 1 1/2 ounces gin, 1 ounce Carpano Antica Formula vermouth, and 3/4 ounce Campari in an ice-filled mixing glass until very cold, about 30 seconds. Strain cocktail through a Hawthorne strainer or a slotted spoon into an ice-filled rocks glass.
Step 2
Using a small serrated knife, remove a 1" strip of peel from an orange (some white pith is okay); it should be stiff enough to provide some resistance when bent. Twist over drink to express oils; discard. Garnish with 3 very thin orange slices.
