Iconic Italian aperitif Campari returns for a second season in support of the 29th Annual SAG Awards, as the new Official Spirits Sponsor.
In honor of the upcoming SAG Awards on Sunday, February 26th, Campari celebrates by unveiling the Official Cocktail of the Award Show – the Campari Negroni Sbagliato Red-Carpet Edition for readers to mix up at home this award season. Crafted by Jessamine McLellan, Director of Campari Academy US, this specialty cocktail is a Hollywood twist on the classic Negroni Sbagliato that everyone’s been buzzing about. Elevated by substituting prosecco for champagne, the cocktail boasts a perfect 50/50 balance of sweet and dry vermouth alongside a touch of gold shimmer, worthy of the star-studded toasts at the SAG Awards.
