Contests

Congrats to Our Cocktail Week Contest Winner

Let’s hear it for Ryan S., the winner of our trivia contest for two all-access passes to SF Cocktail Week, which kicks off Monday, September 17. He correctly answered the question, “What beloved cocktail with crème de violette first appeared in Hugo Ensslin’s 1916 Recipes for Mixed Drinks.” (And then we drew his name out of a hat.) The answer, obviously, is The Aviation, and the biggest cocktail nerds among you chimed in to add that a later version in the Savoy Cocktail Book omits the crème de violette, but that’s not authentic!! Anyway, we look forward to nerding out further with you at the boozy festivities.

Congrats to Our Cocktail Week Contest Winner
