Twelve bartending teams from Pittsburgh’s top establishments will participate in a competition where YOU are the judge. Each team will be assigned a spirit provided by one of 12 participating local distilleries to build a cocktail worthy of your vote for Best Cocktail Recipe.
Join us as we raise our glasses to passionate mixologists who will unleash their creativity to bring their vision to life in every shaken, stirred, and garnished cocktail. DJ Selecta will be spinning the hottest beats, bringing the party vibes to life.
