As of late, one of my favorite warm weather, pre-dinner drinks is Campari and soda with a big twist of orange zest. Pack rocks (old-fashioned) glass with ice, wedge your orange zest in, add 2-3 ounces of Campari, top the rest with sparkling water (I usually use San Pellegrino or LaCroix) and give a stir. Campari itself is a great aperitif: bitter, complex and refreshing. To my taste, some fizz and citrus makes the effect that much better.
