welcome to the first edition of fortunella sour competition
First edition of Fortunella Sour Competition is coming in April 2023!
This competition is about to challenge bartenders with their own take on classic Sour style cocktail, using Fortunella Golden Orange Liqueur. Simple. Yet, complicated. Show us what you got!
challenge
Bartenders are tasked with creating their best version, of Fortunella Sour. Sounds easy? Well, it's more complicated. Fortunella Golden Orange Liqueur is 100% natural liqueur, hand made with fresh kumquats. No artificial ingredients, no essences, no acids or any flavour stabilisers. The real challenge is, how they will approach Fortunella Golden Orange Liqueur. We will find out in April!
