Tales of the Cocktail 2016 is quickly approaching & the crew at Royer is excited for the opportunity to be involved with this great event for the first time!
Along with being the Official Stirrer Sponsor, we are also thrilled to be 
sponsoring this year’s Official Cocktail Competition that is centered around the trending, Moscow Mule!
Angel Teta, the Bar Manager at Atula in Portland, Oregon, was announced as the winner of the competition in early May. Her take on the Mule is called “El Burro Catalan.” Here are the details:

Royer reps will be on-hand at the Kick Off Press Conference on July 20 in New Orleans to present the winner, Angel Teta, with a fully customized trophy! With approximately 400 entries, this year’s Cocktail Competition was jam-packed with tasty concoctions.
