  • About

A modern Kansas twist on the classic Negroni, this bold cocktail blends wheat whiskey, sour cherries, and Campari for a tangy-bitter bite. With Kansas leading the nation in wheat production and rich in sour cherries, this drink is a spirited tribute to the heartland’s agricultural bounty and creative flair. For a smoky finish, smoke the rocks glass as instructed on page 19.
