🥃 Equal parts gin, sweet vermouth, and Campari — the Negroni is a bitter, herbal bar menu staple. And it`s got enough of a cult following that imbibe dedicated a whole week to it.
#NegroniWeek is a way to celebrate the classic cocktail and give back to a good cause. This year`s giving partner is slowfood_international / slowfoodusa, and more than a dozen Asheville area bars + restaurants are joining joints all over the world to show their support.
These local spots made a donation and are serving up Negronis and/or Negroni-inspired specials from now until Sunday, Sept. 24.
