SAVOR THE COCKTAIL CONTEST RUNS THROUGH THE MONTH OF JULY

Park City bartenders and mixologists are ready to serve up their newest, most inventive cocktails and mocktails for this year’s Park City Savor the Cocktail contest. Guests are encouraged to vote for their favorite season sipper from Monday, July 1, through Wednesday, July 31, at parkcityrestaurants.com.

When cocktail and mocktail lovers come out and try the stellar lineup of beverages in the Savor the Cocktail contest, they’re not only supporting members of our restaurant community but also the local Summit County purveyors whose ingredients make these drinks so exceptional,” said PCARA Executive Director Ginger Wicks. “It is because of these strong local partnerships that our dining community can create fresh, uniquely-Utah flavor profiles for locals and visitors to enjoy. Let the (friendly) competition begin!”

The bartender or mixologist with the winning cocktail and mocktail will each earn a $500 cash prize and more importantly, city-wide recognition!
