An All French Negroni Riff | Mike’s Hard Reviews

I got together with a bunch of my YouTuber bartender friends and challenged them all to come up with a historical negroni riff! Here were the rules:

– Must be based on a historical figure who you share with your audience
– Must generally resemble a negroni (but have fun with it)
– Must contain at least 1 ounce or 30 mls of a bitter liqueur (Amaro, Aperitif, Etc.)

Everyone who was involved in this challenge put an insane amount of thought into their creations and you should check all of them out!
