Tales of the Cocktail USBG - NYC ‘warm up’

In a few short weeks the Tales of the Cocktail USBG Leblon Caipirinha Competition is heading to New Orleans. Bartenders from around the country will be competing for the Golden Muddler and this past Sunday, Francine Cohen from Food & Beverage Magazine was nice enough to allow us into her home as Tad Carducci (defending USBG cocktail champion) hosted a cocktail party as a ‘warm up’ for New York’s USBG members and top bartenders in the area. Jason Littrell of The Randolph at Broome made some fantastic cocktails and Derek Brown and Chantal Tseng from Washington DC stopped by to show some support as well as Junior Merino, Cedric Hosy, Elba Giron (last years winner’s partner) and James Menite from NYC. Even Pablo Moix, the USBG member, representing the SoCal market in the competition dropped by to stir up some trouble.
