The London No. 1 Gin is holding a cocktail competition where you can try a cocktail and vote for your favorite online.
Participating cities include: New York, Miami, Boston & Chicago.
For those that don’t know London No. 1 Gin:
“The London No. 1 – one of a handful of gins actually distilled in London – was created to echo the complex and full bodied gins of yesteryear, albeit with a modern twist – a striking turquoise-blue color derived from maceration with gardenia flowers.”
Sounds like a fun gin to play with. Participating bars include:
