Entrants should check the label for “Product of USA” to be sure they are using cocktail cherries that are grown and packed in the U.S. In the absence of such labeling, please ensure that the cherries are not a product of another country.

Contest is open to foodservice operators, mixologists, bartenders, DIY enthusiasts – anyone who loves a good cherry-infused cocktail or mocktail.

ENTRY JUDGING – All eligible entries will be reviewed by Pacific Coast Producers and/or its agents. All decisions are final, binding, and non-disputable.

Entries will be judged on the following criteria, with each being given equal weight in the judges’ assessment:

1. Cherry Love Appeal: Are the cherries in the cocktail being featured in a creative way? Does the beverage look enticing?

2. Cherry Love Originality: Is this creation something refreshingly original? A new twist on a top shelf classic? Infused with new and unexpected flavors and sure to appeal to patrons?

First, Second, and Third place winners may be asked to provide proof that their entry uses U.S.-grown cherries.

Winners will be notified no later than Monday, June 14th, 2021.
