Say "Yes" to this Nogroni, an NA version of a Negroni, this Dry January (or beyond).

Damrak is a non-alcoholic botanical drink from a Dutch gin brand; FLUÈRE Bitter subs in for the red Italian bitter spirit; and a non-alcoholic vermouth rosso, such as Lyre's, rounds out the zero-proof version of the holy trinity.
