We already know chef Charlie Palmer because of his reputation in the culinary world – but we were blown away by the drinks at Crimson & Rye, his hangout in the lobby of the iconic Lipstick Building in midtown. Featuring over 50 different varieties of whiskey, rye, scotch and bourbon, plus a solid selection of vodka, gin, beer and wine, Crimson & Rye is the perfect after-work destination. But the cocktails are the main draw – especially the Charlie’s Negroni, a riff on the classic. Simple and delicious, the Charlie’s Negroni is our pick for Drink of the Week.
Charlie’s Negroni Recipe
- 1 oz. Hendrick’s Gin
- 0.5 oz. Aperol

Mix the ingredients and enjoy!
