Via Carota Ready-to-Drink Cocktails, White Negroni, NV (375ml)

One of the hardest tables to get in the West Village now comes in a bottle. Via Carota's White Negroni is the pale, sharper-edged cousin of the classic: same bittersweet architecture, but brighter and more citrus-driven, with an herbal bitterness that stays elegant instead of heavy. It's bottled ready to pour, which means no measuring, no stirring station, no six half-empty bottles on the counter. Pour it over one big cube, give it a quick stir to chill and open up, and finish with a wide twist of lemon or grapefruit. At 375ml you get a few proper cocktails — enough for a couple of people or a very well-organized evening alone.
