The History of the Americano Cocktail
Channel: Alliterative
Date: 2017-04-24

Vermouth, Campari, and the Americano Way: the etymology of the Americano & Negroni cocktails takes us from Visigothic rulers and Latin kings to Italian adventurers and the origin of the American dollar. 

Small correction: The name "Arthur Henry Savage Landor" should be "ARNOLD Henry Savage Landor". Thanks to PureZOOKS for pointing that out!
