Spurring from Maggiano's made-from-scratch culture; the brand
created the signature Barrel-Aged Cocktail. Maggiano's is leading
the way in cocktail innovation as it is the only national
casual-dining restaurant to serve a cocktail that has been aged
in-house to its Guests. Not only does this handcrafted cocktail
bring rich premium flavors, but it also carries a history that
directly reflects Maggiano's Italian-American heritage. Maggiano's
executive mixologists paired Old Forester, America's first bottled
bourbon, with the original 1525 Italian recipe of Disaronno®
Amaretto to create the perfect Italian-American cocktail to serve
with Maggiano's made-from-scratch dishes.
Also, known for its wine culture and the fact that
Italian-American dishes pair excellently with a great glass of
wine, it was a simple decision for the brand to invest in the
Coravin Wine Preservation Opener, which allows Maggiano's Guests to
enjoy any wine of their choice by the glass without the price tag
of a whole bottle.
"We're experts in creating a memorable dining experience where
our Guests feel special" said Larry
Konecny, vice president and chief concept officer of
Maggiano's. "Elevating our bar experience and taking great care in
giving our Guests the perfect drink options to pair with their food
was an easy next step for us."
Maggiano's Bar Enhancements
- Barrel-Aged Cocktail – This new signature
beverage is sure to be the drink of the season as it exudes warms
flavors just in time for fall! To make this drink, Maggiano's mixes

Cointreau® in an American white oak barrel
and cures the cocktail in-house for 14 days before serving it over
a large ice cube with an orange expression.
- Coravin Wine Preservation Opener – This
system allows wine to be accessed without ever removing the cork,
thus perfectly preserving a bottle of wine for years without
worrying about waste. With Coravin, Maggiano's Guests will be able
