A chocolate twist on the classic Italian cocktail.

We have been big fans of the resurgence of the Negroni as a popular cocktail. The simple to make but deliciously complex drink is one of our favorites.

While the Negroni is known as a before-dinner drink or an apéritif, we thought it would be fun to create a “bittersweet” alternative dessert cocktail. With a splash of Crème de Cacao, plus a few dashes of Angostura Chocolate Bitters to enhance those chocolate notes our Chocolate Negroni is sure to satisfy your cravings.
