Come on up to Park City this Thursday, April 2nd for tons of crazy cocktail fun.
Park City’s best and most creative mixologists will be gathered at the Wasatch Brew Pub Cantina, from 7 to 9 PM, to face off with their best signature cocktails. It’ll all take place at the 4th Annual Park City Cocktail Contest.
Local bartenders representing Park City restaurants and bars will be mixing their most unique cocktails for a panel of distinguished “celebrity” judges, including Kerry Jackson from X96’s “Radio From Hell,” along with yours truly. (If they mix it, we will come.)
The winning libation will become Park City’s Signature Cocktail for 2009. The public is invited and the evening includes live entertainment, food,a raffle and plenty of shenanigans. The $5 entrance fee goes to benefit The People’s Clinic, a non-profit health clinic providing high-quality medical services to uninsured individuals and families in the Park City area.
Just another fine reason to visit the People’s Republic of Park City.
Will you be the one who picks Park City’s Signature Cocktail?

What will Park City’s 2009 Signature Cocktail be? That’s what the Park City Restaurant Association aims to find out at the fourth annual Libation Nation Celebration.
The Celebration, happening April 2 from 7 to 9 p.m. at Wasatch Brew Pub Cantina (205 Main St. in Park City), hosts the contest in which bartenders whip up their alcoholic art in hopes it will be spotlighted in Park City the whole year long.
And if you’re interested in helping pick the cocktail, you can win a spot as a guest judge if you participate in the event’s raffle.
But not only will this cocktail competition ensue at Libation Nation, but also charitable fundraising. Your $5 donation at the door will directly benefit the People’s Health Clinic.
So cheers to charity, and may the best bartender win!
