Drinking for a good cause: Negroni Week celebrates 10th anniversary this year with 60 bars in Singapore, Lifestyle News

Raise Your Spirits & Your Savings: The Negroni Week Returns

Who says sipping a classic Negroni can’t feel like doing good? Thanks to Campari’s partnership with Imbibe Magazine, the beloved Negroni Week is back for its 10th edition and this year, it’s doing a double kick—taste + charity.

Event Basics

Dates: September 12–18, 2022
What to Expect: A global “drink for a cause” celebration featuring the iconic Negroni and everything that makes it a mixologist’s MVP.
Why It Matters: Every cocktail poured powers a good cause—think community change, local projects, or the next generation of bartenders.

How It Works

Grab your favorite mix (Campari, bright vermouth, gin—no, we’re not ‘just telling you to buy a gin shop’) and pop it at a designated venue or online. The money you spend? It’s donated straight to projects that need it most.

Feel the Fun, Not Just the Bitter

Negroni is that sweet spot where sweetness and bitterness meet exactly—just like a good charity event helps the community find its perfect balance. And honestly, who doesn’t want a cocktail that tastes as good as the cause it supports?

First 10 Years, Countless Cheers

Campari’s journey with Imbibe Magazine started a decade ago, and it’s been nothing but a spectacular cocktail of generosity, community, and unforgettable flavors.

Cheers to Change: How Bars Worldwide Are Raising Funds for Good

Ever wonder where a night out might help a charity? Since 2013, a global initiative has hooked up thousands of restaurants and pubs across the planet, and the result? A tidy $3 million and counting for countless nonprofit causes.

These happy‑hour helpers have the freedom to decide what portion of their sales goes to local charities—most famously this year, the campaign is tipping its hat to Slow Food. The Italy–based organization champions culinary diversity and pushes for a healthier, tastier eating future in over 160 nations.

What’s the vibe this week?

The event keeps the spirit of community alive with the “Bartender Handshake.” It’s that unspoken tradition where colleagues, pals, and regulars get a complimentary cocktail or shot—just a friendly nod, a toast, and a bit of buzz.

Singapore’s spirited spread

Singapore’s bars are lined up for a nationwide fiesta. With more than 60 venues on board, their bartenders are reimagining the classic Negroni. Think gin, sweet vermouth, and the iconic red heart—Campari—mixed in equal parts, then topped with a splash of local flair.

Why it matters

Funds raised help charities worldwide.
Community bonds are strengthened by the handshake tradition.
Local bartenders get to experiment with a beloved cocktail.
Support for Slow Food spreads culinary wisdom while easing funding for NGOs.

So next time you’re climbing into a bar, remember that the tip you leave might just be a ticket to a brighter future—while you sip something delightfully refreshing. Cheers to that!

Negroni Week at 15 Stamford: A Cocktail Adventure

We hit the Bar at 15 Stamford yesterday and discovered a couple of Negroni twists that are worth bragging about.

1⃣ The One That Got Away (T.O.T.G.A.)

Light & Sweet: Think of a Negroni that didn’t stumble into the dark side.
Floral Touch: It’s built around a chrysanthemum‑infused bianco vermouth that feels like a gentle garden breeze.
Peychaud’s Aroma: Those bitters keep the scent fresh and citrusy, pulling the whole drink together.

2⃣ Negroni Express – A Filipino Love Letter

Inspired by Bicol Express: Dr. Mel John Chavez brings the heat of the spicy Filipino staple straight to your glass.
Jasmine Rice Syrup: Gives the drink a subtle sweet backdrop.
Chili Liqueur (Ancho Reyes Verde): The moment you sip, the heat kicks in—just enough to leave you licking your lips.

When you take a moment between drinks, a pickle and olive garnish steps in to cut the heat with a tangy, briny “pause button.”

Bottom Line

Both cocktails are complex, evolving and each sip opens a new flavor chapter. If you’re into drinks that combine sweet, floral, spicy, and downright bold vibes, this pair at 15 Stamford is a must-stay.

Mead By Men: A Light, Fizzy Celebration of Smoked Apple

Step into O/T Bar and say hello to a cocktail that’s as breezy as a midsummer wind. Mead By Men swirls gently with a whisper of Laird’s Applejack smoldered to perfection. The secret? A dash of smoky charm that pairs with a splash of fruitiness—think pearish-apple vibes—while a hint of sweet and a touch of tart keep it refreshingly balanced.

Why You’ll Love It

Light and slightly fizzy—like a sparkling sunrise.
Smoked apple flavors that make you feel like you’re sipping a forest breeze.
Sweet, sour, and just enough bite to keep your taste buds dancing.

Southbridge’s Rosmarino Negroni: The Tropical Whisper of Hops and Herb

If “strong & potent” is your idea of a good time, the Rosmarino Negroni at Southbridge bar is your new go-to. The trio of Campari infused with hibiscus, smoked rosemary gin, and Possa Vermouth create a cocktail that looks and feels like a vacation in a glass. The addition of a fresh raspberry garnish? It’s the sweet bite that ties the drink’s boldness together.

How to Imagine It

Glassy hazy sunrise.
Downy hibiscus notes on a smoky rocking chair of herbs.
Berry sweetness that dances on the tongue like a summer encore.
