In Thailand, more than 120 venues (and counting!) already signed up to participate in Negroni Week 2022. Among them are a good couple of dozen in Phuket that promise cocktail aficionados with an extensive list of creative Negroni variations and alluring seascape of the Andaman Sea to go with.

“Phuket has become a prominent drinking destination of Thailand, and it’s definitely going to be especially vibrant during Negroni Week 2022,” Pongsakorn Ruangjun, Bar Manager of The Bar at Trisara, enthuses. “Personally, negroni is one of my favorite drinks. And as bar manager, to be able to become part of a global event like this on its 10th anniversary is a very exciting prospect. At The Bar, we create drinks from local ingredients and suitable approach, and we will incorporate our identity with Negroni, which is one of the world’s most iconic and timeless cocktails to offer new drinking experience to our patrons.
“The weather in Phuket right now is not really ideal for heavy drinks, so we will fine tune the classic Negroni to offer something more refreshing and easier to drink. This is an interesting challenge for us, too. And I’m sure it will be an intriguing experience for anyone looking for a decent, carefully crafted drink amid Thailand’s lush tropical seaside setting.”
Guests visiting The Bar during Negroni Week will be treated to three special “raw” Negronis, concocted with homemade ingredients, local produce and meticulous techniques. Expect some stripped down yet flavorful, sustainably crafted drinks with twist, highball style and sweet-and-sour flavor profile with stunning sunset in the background.

Meanwhile at Kalima Resort & Spa, head bartender Anurak Jurattanasarn, is cooking up three Negroni variations using fruity and floral ingredients. There’s the Negroni Highball with sakura vermouth and jasmine soda, and Coconut Negroni with juice of roasted coconut that is served island-style in a whole coconut. The bar also pays homage to the Italian root of the drink with Limoncello Negroni using homemade sparkling limoncello.
“There’s no way we’d opt out this year’s Negroni Week,” Anurak says. “It’s a yearly festival that we – bartenders and consumers alike – look forward to, plus we get to give back to society. It’s also an honor to join the festival’s 10th anniversary with bars and venues all over the world. What’s more is that, besides craft cocktails, Phuket is a great spot to enjoy Negroni Week. Nothing beats sipping a cold, tasty drink by the sea while you’re watching the sun go down and listening to the waves. This year, why not come visit us in Phuket and enjoy the idyllic island vibe during Negroni Week? You’ll love it!”
