From Wikipedia:
Campari is an alcoholic liqueur, considered an apéritif..., obtained from the infusion of herbs and fruit (including chinotto and cascarilla) in alcohol and water. It is a bitters, characterised by its dark red colour.
Campari is often used in cocktails and is commonly served with soda water or citrus juice, or with prosecco as a spritz. It is produced by the Davide Campari Group, a multi-national company based in Italy.
Campari was invented in 1860 by Gaspare Campari in Novara, Italy. It was originally coloured with carmine dye, derived from crushed cochineal insects, which gave the drink its distinctive red colour.
In 1904, Campari's first production plant was opened in Sesto San Giovanni, near Milan, Italy.... The Campari brand is now distributed in over 190 countries.
Campari is an essential ingredient in the classic Negroni cocktail, the Garibaldi, the Americano..., and the spritz (an aperitif popular in northern Italy).
