In case you're wondering, the Negroni is a classic, stirred cocktail traditionally made with equal parts gin, vermouth and Campari - Italy's iconic red bitter - and garnished with orange peel. However of course our bartenders are gonna mix it all up! 

A lot of them feature Asian flavours, and there's going to be different bases used like rum, vodka, umeshu and sake! Other innovations also include using a CO2 carbonator instead of soda, incorporating lollipop flavours and hot cocktails.
