Happy Negroni week!

Did you know that this week is Negroni week? If you didn’t, you know now (and it’s the last day)! I hope you’ve had one, if not because they are awesome….at least because it’s for a good cause. I had a couple at The Revelry the other day, as you can see from my Instagram post. (I’d love to have you follow along!) And also from Shannon’s post!

I wanted to share a variation on the classic Negroni that I make on occasion. It’s fun to swap out different ingredients to see what you can come up with. In this case, tequila for gin, and Ancho Reyes for vermouth. Cheers….enjoy!

  1. Hi there! I could have sworn I’ve visited this blog before but
    after browsing through many of the posts I realized it’s new to
    me. Nonetheless, I’m certainly delighted I discovered it and I’ll be bookmarking it and checking back regularly!
