Negroni Week Returns

Let everyone else line up for PSL’s — you, on the other hand, have negronis to drink. That’s right, it’s a cocktail lover’s most wonderful time of the year, Negroni Week, from Monday, September 16th through Sunday, September 22nd. Tons of your favorite watering holes are throwing their Campari/gin/vermouth offerings into the ring this year including spots like The Vermilion Club, State Park and Foundry on Elm, so you can work your way from neighborhood to neighborhood – from Downtown to Davis Square – to try everyone’s special take on the classic concoction.

Wet your whistle with the slideshow below which includes options from the likes of Bambara, Nautilus Pier 4, Hojoko, The Merchant Kitchen & DrinksAmba, Shy Bird (both Southie and Kendall Square), Little Donkey, Karma, The Lexington, Giulia, Noir, Josephine, Puritan & Co., Rebel’s Guild, Rail Stop, Bar Pallino, Coppa, Pammy’s, Woods Hill Table and Wusong Tiki Bar. Peruse a whole menu’s worth of possibilities at spots like Lucie Drink + Dine and Marseille, or make for Bar Volpe where you can enjoy a flight of three mini negronis.

If you need a little extra incentive to go forth and explore, keep in mind that a portion of the funds from every drink will go to Slow Food International, a global charity initiative that supports sustainability, education, equity, and diversity, with hospitality, food, and drink woven throughout, so you can feel a little extra warm and fuzzy each time you try a taste. Check out the Negroni Week website to map out your stops, and be sure to post photos of your faves on social media with the official hashtag, #NegroniWeek, and tag Campari and Imbibe Magazine.
