This week on Good Food, Talia Baoicchi, editor of Punch, sucks us into the wonderful world of sherry. Her new book, Sherry: A Modern Guide to the Wine World’s Best Kept Secret is a guide to what she believes is a largely underrated wine.

Try this recipe which she says “drinks like a Negroni best consumed near the equator” owing to the “interplay of the subtle funk of the rum with the raisiny woodiness of Lustau’s East India sherry.”

East India Negroni

2 ounces Banks 5-Island rum

1 ounce Campari

1 ounce Lustau East India sherry

Garnish: orange peel

add all the ingredients but the garnish to a mixing glass, then add ice.

Stir and strain into a rocks glass with one large ice cube. Garnish with the orange peel.
