Drink of the Week: Cynar 70-Proof

Love a good amaro? Then you’d best pick up a bottle of today’s Drink of the Week. The much-anticipated Cynar 70-proof is a bold addition to the bitter category. At more than twice the original formula’s ABV, it offers concentrated notes of dark cocoa, bitter botanicals and earthy spice, but with a subtle sweetness that rounds it out and makes it a prime a candidate for solo sipping or cocktail mixing (not to mention it makes an amazing caffe corretto). It’s just starting its nationwide rollout, so watch for it on shelves soon, and head to Cynar’s website to learn more about the artichoke liqueur.
