4 NEGRONI RECIPES YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS NEGRONI WEEK!

It’s Negroni Week and we’re celebrating with the our perfect Negroni serve and some twists on the classic that’ll turn even the biggest Negroni sceptics into NEGRONI LOVERS!

Negronis, a popular Italian cocktail, are all the rage in the drinking scene right now. While they’ve been around for over 100 years, it’s only recently that it has moved from being an ‘in-the-know’ order to a more widely acknowledged and marketed drink.

That being said, we know they aren’t for everyone. So, we’ve given you our signature Negroni serve as well as a couple more interesting twists on the classic, to help you understand why it’s such a special tipple.

Read on to explore and start celebrating Negroni Week!
