Negroni Week, the seven-day charity event created by Imbibe Magazine and Campari, may be gone, but that doesn’t mean you can’t still enjoy variations on the classic drink.

My favorite Negroni Week variation came from a tiki bar here in SF, and was served in a pineapple. I’ve also had Negroni cotton candy, and some pretty epic, non-traditional spins on the cocktail.

Here are a few great options to get you started.
