For the 2021 National Final, participants will have to base their creations on the theme of take-out cocktails for a chance to win the competition.
Each participant will have to create a “bottled cocktail.” Their creation will then be prepared and sent to 18 judges across the country.
In addition to this, the public of every province will have the opportunity to cheer their favorite competitor and vote for them on MADE WITH LOVE website. The competitor with the most votes will win the public choice money price! To be able to vote, the public will have to make a minimum 5$ donation to the Bartender Benevolent Fund.
The creations of our participants will be available in local bars and restaurants that are partners of MADE WITH LOVE from April 6 to 18, 2021.
Depending on the situation and according to the regulations and laws of your province, competing cocktails will be available on-site or for take-out. A portion of the profits made from the sale of these cocktails will go to the Bartenders Benevolent Fund. At the time of writing, the province of Quebec is still in lockdown and does not allow delivery of cocktails. It is therefore impossible, at the moment, for the public to taste your cocktails in Quebec.
We’re counting on you, members of our extravagant and crazy audience, to cheer on the competitors as you watch the National Finals online on April 12 and 13. Once again, we promise you that creativity, originality, and flavour are on the program!
