Oh, Stunning: Where to Find the Viral Negroni Sbagliato in Houston

Oh, Stunning: Where to Find the Viral Negroni Sbagliato in Houston

A NEW COCKTAIL trend has spawned after a TikTok of House of Dragons star Olivia Cooke asking her co-star Emma D’Arcy their drink of choice went viral. D’Arcy responds, “a Negroni Sbagliato… with prosecco in it.” Cooke’s reply? “Oh, stunning.”

The video has 18.9 million views on TikTok and has prompted an uptick in orders at bars across town. A traditional Negroni is made with Campari, sweet vermouth and gin. The Negroni Sbagliato — sbagliato is Italian for “mistake” or “wrong” — substitutes the gin for prosecco.

It raised $1.3 million to boot.
