4 Candy-themed Cocktails To Make For Negroni Week

For the last 4 years, Imbibe and Campari have brought the bar industry together under one cocktail umbrella to be able to stand together and support the many charitable needs in the world.  The event is called Negroni Week.  For the third year in a row, Inspire Artistic Minds is one of the most selected charities in the world, partnering with some of the most reputable bars in the country like Death & Co., Vaca, Sassafras Saloon, and The Blind Rabbit.

Every year the bar partners of Inspire Artistic Minds come up with new and innovative creations to help push sales during Negroni Week, since $1 of every Negroni sold goes to the charity of the bars choice.  This year, the candy themes in these Negroni’s are sure to cause a splash.  Available from June 6 – June 12 you can get a piece of these creations at The Blind Rabbit located at the iconic Anaheim Packing House.  You can also treat yourself to a tasting of Negroni’s at the Inspire Artistic Minds’ Opening Celebration at Mesa on June 6th from 6 – 9 (www.inspireartisticminds.org/tickets )
