Who will impress the judges or wi n the hearts of our People's Choice? Who will have their name etched in hi story on THE plaque??? All Chicago members are welcome to compete. Anyone is welcome\, as long as you have never worked in the industry. This is mea nt to be an amateur competition. We're seeking competitors from both the L incoln Park and Roscoe Clubhouses. Each participant will have their own “bar” during the challenge and will have to prepare their cocktail for the official judges and crowd. Your cocktail will be judged on taste\, pr esentation\, originality in ingredients\, and name. Participants are grant ed a $50 stipend to offset the cost of the competition. Winner gets a $100 gift card and eternal bragging rights!Email gabby@birchroad.com for more details on participating and rules. Theme this year is: “First Love”  Your cocktail should tell the story of a first love. Maybe it’s inspir ed by your first-ever cocktail\, the drink that introduced you to your fav orite spirit\, a first date\, a childhood flavor\, a summer romance\, or a n unforgettable night that started something special. Your inspiration can be personal\, nostalgic\, playful\, romantic\, or completely unexpected. Take us back to that moment and translate the feeling into a drink. Make u s remember our own first love.A Statement from the Judges:"A good cocktail does not require expensive ingredients or a culinary science degree. Whil e the creativity of cocktailing is fun and experimental\, each ingredient still needs to make sense for your end result/final cocktail. Even the mo st basic two-ingredient cocktail can win\, as long as those 2 ingredients make sense and work well together. Use your own palate as your guide. Prac tice making it and talking about it. Once you have your final recipe\, inv ite your friends over to be amazed by your new creation. Ultimately\, the judges are most impressed by thoughtfulness and a good story behind every aspect of what's in the glass (including your glassware selection!). Ther e are a few things that are "proper" cocktail practice but be creative\, p ush the boundaries\, and put yourself into the glass."Secure your spot to compete by RSVPing here (you can always "un-RSVP" so save your spot!).
