I'm definitely a traditionalist when it comes to negronis, but I'd try it. It sounds pretty tasty.

Sounds good. I’ve had (mostly) great experiences with the drink specials offered at the Senator E lounge in ZRH, hopefully this will be no different.

Not so sure this specific cocktail would 'fly' in this country (US), when I saw the reference to 'white' Negroni. We don't need to 'rock the aircraft' & create 'turbulence' with that color ! ... lol

As sad as it is, I can absolutely see scenarios where Americans who don't drink/don't know what a negroni is jump to conclusions. I've been to a surprising number of bars in the Atlanta area that don't stock vermouth or campari, giant whiskey selection at the expense of all else tends to be the overriding principle unless you're in an Italian restaurant. And don't even get me started on the sad state of rum offerings.

Uh did I hear that right? Vermouth, elderflower, mint liqueur, and chocolate liqueur? And they’re saying it’s basically a white negroni? Can’t say I’ve ever dipped an Andes mint in elderflower syrup and thought “this is basically the same thing as gin and Suze.” Sounds pretty heinous.

Does this mean It will not be available to to long haul economy and short haul business class at all? I remember LHs Avionic to be available on short haul as well and would have expected to be Swiss implementation of a groups concept.

They couldn’t get the rights to serve a Ricola cocktail?
