Chill all the liquid ingredients beforehand so the ice melts slowly. This ensures the drink retains its bold, undiluted flavour.

The negroni sbagliato has become the drink of the moment due to a viral TikTok clip featuring British actor Emma D’Arcy. Despite this tipple’s new fame, it first gained popularity in Italy in the 1970s when it was accidentally created at Milan’s Bar Basso. Legend has it that while a bartender made a negroni, he reached for the gin but fortuitously picked up the prosecco instead. Sbagliato means a mistake, and this is one mistake worth repeating. The trickiest element to get right in a 0% version of a sbagliato is the trademark balance of sweet, strong and bitter. I achieved this by muddling orange peel with sugar and stirring through San Pellegrino Aranciata Rossa. Replacing a prosecco was easy with so many new 0% sparkling wines available. I used a Le Petit Béret, so I could control the sweetness of the drink. If you select a sweet sparkling wine, be sure to taste as you go and adjust the sugar so that the drink keeps its balanced flavour.

1 Using a sharp knife, carefully peel a firm orange making sure to avoid the white pith – we only want the aromatic oils in the outer section of the peel. You need two pieces, which are 7cm long and 3cm wide. 2 Put one of the two orange peels in a rocks glass, add ½ tablespoon of sugar and muddle it. If you don’t have a muddler, you can use the handle of a thick wooden spoon. While muddling, grind the orange peel and the sugar together until the sugar resembles a coarse paste. 3 Pour in the San Pellegrino Aranciata Rossa and stir to dissolve the sugar. Fill the glass with large ice cubes. 4 Top with the Le Petit Béret 0% Sparkling Rosé and stir gently to combine the drink without losing carbonation. 5 Hold the second piece of orange peel over the top of the drink and twist it with the exterior of the rind facing out. This will spritz orange oil over the top of the drink, further enhancing its aroma. Slide the twisted orange peel down the inside of the side of the glass and serve.
