Signature Cocktail Night
Everyone brings the drink they’d make if someone said "make me your drink." Batch-friendly. Vote for best sip and most chaotic build. Bring your own garnish.
What it's for
Let the drink people choose reveal something about them that two hours of small talk would miss.
The guest's job
Bring a batched version of the drink that is unmistakably yours — garnish and all.
The vote
Best sip and most chaotic build — two separate awards, because they rarely go to the same drink.
The reveal
The two-minute story behind the cocktail: where it came from, when you first made it, why it’s yours.
Food & drink spine
Light food the host provides — the cocktails are the meal; no one is cooking tonight.
Conversation fuel
"What does your drink say about you that you’d never say out loud?"
How it flops — steer around it
Back-to-back gin and tonics. Assign spirit categories so the bar has some range.
