link to Campari website
"What is Campari made of ?
Campari is a clear red liquid with an alcohol content of 28.5% and a sugar content of 25%. It is made from an infusion of alcohol and distilled water added to a mixture of herbs, plants and fruit. Syrup, obtained by dissolving saccharine in distilled water, is added to the infusion along with the colorant and the distilled water needed to reach the volume of production. After mixing the components, the Campari is left to mature for thirty days; it is then filtered and the result is a crystal clear product ready for bottling. "

BAD CAMPARI. BAD.

"Campari’s red colour comes from Cochineal Crimson E120: Colour Index 75470"

"Cochineal" means that the color comes from a bug - a crushed beetle, to be more precise.
