About the Garibaldi
The Garibaldi is a simple Italian aperitif combining Campari with orange juice. Named after Italian general Giuseppe Garibaldi, the drink brings together the red color and bitterness of the northern Italian aperitif with citrus associated with southern Italy.
What does a Garibaldi taste like?
The Garibaldi tastes bittersweet, juicy and citrus-forward. Campari supplies herbal bitterness and orange-peel complexity, while orange juice provides sweetness, acidity and a softer fruit character that makes the drink particularly approachable.
Tips for making a Garibaldi
Fresh orange juice produces the best flavor. For the characteristic modern texture, aerate or vigorously blend the orange juice before adding it to create a light, fluffy consistency. Serve well chilled over ice.
