Canyons Village Management Association (CVMA) in Park City has announced their first-ever 2024 Cocktail/Mocktail Contest: A Toast to Local Flavors and Creativity. 

According to the CVMA, the launch of the 2024 Cocktail/Mocktail Contest is “a celebration of culinary innovation and the vibrant flavors of Canyons Village. Member restaurants are invited to participate in this exciting competition that will take place from March 1 to March 30, 2024.”

“In partnership with the local community, this year’s contest places a special emphasis on supporting local purveyors. Participating establishments are challenged to include a minimum of two ingredients from local suppliers of their choice.”

“Canyons Village restaurants are encouraged to craft a cocktail/mocktail recipe that encapsulates the essence of the Canyons Village winter experience. The competition welcomes creativity as mixologists curate a libation that mirrors the magic of their surroundings.”

“The winning cocktail/mocktail and the establishment responsible for its creation will be prominently featured in a dedicated marketing and PR campaign post-contest, offering both exposure and bragging rights. Additionally, the talented mixologist behind the winning creation will receive a coveted $500 cash prize.” 

According to the CVMA, voting is open to the public and will begin on March 1, 2024. Stay tuned to Sip o’ the Week for more specific information on participants and on how to vote for your favorite cocktail/mocktail.
