Cynar Liqueur

Drink your veggies!



Brand: Cynar

This bitter liqueur is an Italian aperitif, made from artichoke leaves and herbs infused in an alcohol base. Its name is derived from the property cynarin, which comes from artichokes and modifies taste buds. 


Cynar’s bitter taste is a nice change from the girly drinks you may have been encountering all summer long.
