It's that wonderful time of the year. Starting today, bars across the country put out their best negroni to support a good cause of their choice.
Negroni Week first started in San Francisco two years ago, and now Austin, Chicago, New York are just a few of the other cities participating this year. Each bar spotlights their own take on a negroni and a portion of the proceeds go to a charity of the bar's choice. Last year more than 1,300 bars globally raised more than $120,000 for good causes. This year there are over 3,500 bars taking part globally.
Negronis are one of the most classic drinks, traditionally made from just three ingredients: gin, Campari, and vermouth plus an orange garnish. Learn more about which bars are participating this year on the Negroni Week website.
Here are just a few of the drinks being offered in San Francisco this year. We'll update this list as we learn about more.
