It's time for the second annual, or if your memory goes back far enough, perhaps the third annual Cocktail Contest.This year we are adding a new catagory...non-alcoholic drinks...so crank up your juicer and break out those Virgin Mary recipes...we're making cocktails!

Last year's contest was so much fun I went back in time and copied the blog post.
Ahhh...nostalgia!

Cocktail Contest Winners.
Thursday afternoon we had a contest...a COCKTAIL contest, and if you missed it,
well all I can say is, poor baby, you missed a great time!
We had eleven would-be bartenders show off their mixology skills, and dramatic flair.
The tables were decorated with everything from bright colors, teddy bears,
and Valentine candy to pirate booty, tropical ambiance and fruit.
The judges were a hoot. They really got into the spirit, shall we say.
All the recipes for the fun and tasty libations will be published in the Sandpiper Cookbook.

Peoples’ Choice award was very close as there were many contenders and the
winner was the Healthiest Way to Get Laid-Irwin & Margaret!
All involved seem to have lots of fun including judges Jan and George who
sampled all drinks in 25 minutes then sat down to deliberate and
wait for the buzz to catch up, which it did (hehe).
Then we had to go back and confirm our decisions which,
of course, involved more sampling.
We were both glowing and feeling no pain by the end.
Submitted: Judge George

So get on your thinking caps and hone your showmanship skills.
The judges are looking for a show!
Oh, and taste, of course!
