- 4 ounces club soda

Notes
- This americano cocktail recipe is made for a tall cocktail glass. If you're using a smaller glass, you can halve the recipe.
- The recommended vermouth to use for this cocktail is a red sweet vermouth. I used Cinzano Rosso, but there are so many red vermouths out there you can use.
- This cocktail is on the stronger side. To make it less strong, you can add more club soda than the recipe calls for.
- Garnishing this cocktail with orange slices and strawberries is optional, but I would recommend it. It makes the cocktail look pretty, and by the time you're finished the cocktail, you'll have wonderful liqueur-soaked fruit to eat!
- To get the exact measurements and proportions for this cocktail, make it with a shot glass (as shown in the process steps)
