CREATE A COCKTAIL + WIN AN AT-HOME BARISTA EXPERIENCE

Coffee Cocktail Challenge Intro : https://youtu.be/A-34jB6YiO8

Name a more iconic duo! Coffee and alcohol is a match made in heaven.

Another duo we’re pretty happy about is cocktail-making expert Steve the Bartender and local coffee liquor house Mr Black, who have joined forces to create the Coffee Cocktail Challenge 2020.

Hailing from Adelaide, Steve the Bartender has grown an impressive cult following of 460k cocktail-makers from around the world, who religiously follow his YouTube channel for recipes, tips and a glimpse of his infamous “shake and smile”.

Crowd favourite Mr Black is an Australian coffee liqueur brand, founded in 2013 by awarded distiller Philip Moore and designer-turned-coffee-snob Tom Baker. Each and every bottle is made by hand at their coffee roastery and distillery, just north of Sydney – and the bottle designs are just as premium as the liquor itself.

The product of the partnership, the Coffee Cocktail Challenge 2020 is open to anyone who’s up for the challenge of creating a unique cocktail recipe using Mr Black as one of the ingredients. There are weekly prizes up for grabs as well as a grand prize of a $1000 coffee machine plus cash prize!

The competition is in its early states and has already amassed over 300 entries with a high calibre of creativity & presentation.

The winner of week 1 was Black Lavender Latte by Savidge Kitchen, described as:

“..A delectable and drinkable any season of the year. The bold coffee flavor comes purely from Mr. Black coffee liqueur, satisfying any coffee lover’s craving. Then, the floral notes of the lavender, and slight spice of the cognac combine beautifully in this boozy spin on a latte.
The Black Lavender Latter will always leave you warm and ready for the next round. Cheers!”

Stay tuned to see the Winner of Week 3 on Thursday 10th December.

With the competition running through the holiday period, there’s plenty of time to get involved and try your hand at a cocktail!
