Negroni Week starts tonight! June 7th-12th, $1.00 of every negroni purchase will go to benefit Santa Cruz County's Second Harvest Food Bank. We'll be featuring our White Negroni with Plymouth gin, Dolin Blanc, Suze and a twist, but the purchase of any negroni, classic to creative, will go toward nourishing those in need. Throw one back to give back! Cheers!
