In Celebration of the Negroni

Negronis are delicious.  So delicious, in fact, that they have an entire week dedicated to them.  We are currently in the dead center of this amazing week.  But not every town in America is going to have a bartender that can mix up the perfect Negroni. And we don’t want you guys to feel left out.  So we’ve compiled a list of our favorite Negroni recipes to help you drink away… I mean celebrate, the rest of this magical week.

Happy Negroni Week!
