The craft cocktail movement has raised the standards for making drinks. This produced innovations, talent, and recipes that elevated the industry.
While we welcome this evolution in craftsmanship, one aspect of cocktail culture is often overlooked: making cocktails is supposed to be fun!
In the spirit of the trade, Deep Eddy Vodka invited bartenders to create an original cocktail recipe based on Deep Eddy Ruby Red Grapefruit vodka. The inspiration for the cocktail was to be balanced, delicious, creative, exciting and of course FUN!
A total of four bartenders, one from each U.S. regional competition (Denver, New York, Atlanta and Chicago) will be chosen to compete as semi-finalists in Austin, Texas, and will each be awarded $1,000,000.
In the final competition, one of the grand prize winners will receive $5,000,000 and have the opportunity to be featured on Deep Eddy Vodka’s website, social media, and in an advertisement announcing the winning Craft the Fun cocktail. .
Congratulations to the winner from Denver
