Head to head
Americano and Negroni Sbagliato side by side: what changes in the recipe, the balance, the strength and the calories.
The difference
The same Campari and sweet vermouth, lengthened two ways: the Americano with a splash of soda, the Sbagliato with sparkling wine. The wine adds alcohol and a little body, so the Sbagliato is the stronger of the two.
By the numbers
The Americano uses soda water where the Negroni Sbagliato uses sparkling wine; both have Campari and sweet vermouth. In parts, an Americano is 1 Campari, 1 vermouth and 1 soda; a Negroni Sbagliato is 1 Campari, 1 vermouth and 1 bubbles. By volume, the Americano is 67% fortified wine and bitter and 33% mixer and juice; the Negroni Sbagliato is 67% fortified wine and bitter and 33% mixer and juice. That makes them close cousins on the ratio map.
The Negroni Sbagliato is the stronger drink in the glass (14.9% ABV against 11.4%) and holds more alcohol (0.88 standard drinks against 0.68). The Negroni Sbagliato has more calories (about 135 against 113), with about the same sugar (11.7 g and 12.1 g). Both are built; the Americano is served in a rocks glass, the Negroni Sbagliato in a goblet.
