The 10th Annual Summer Sippin’ competition has come to a close and it’s time to announce the winners of the ‘Best Sip in Roswell’. This year, Summer Sippin’ took place June 17 – August 19. During the two-month competition, 61 establishments participated by creating a new summer inspired drink.
The ‘Best Sip in Roswell,’ has two winners, one for the cocktail category and one for the non-alcoholic beverage category. Hugo’s Oyster Bar takes first place in the cocktail category with Mi Amango and Mashawi comes in first place in the non-alcoholic beverage category with their Lemon Mint drink.
Restaurants, coffee shops, breweries and tasting rooms all around Roswell created a new specialty drink for Summer Sippin’. Each establishment promoted their drink throughout the competition this summer to customers and encouraged voting via SummerSippin.com or on the Summer Sippin’ app. Votes were tallied throughout the competition so each participating location knew how their drink ranked. With a combined total of over 25,000 views on the website and app and 1,519 votes cast overall, the winners were decided.
