Win a trip to Sydney Bar Week with the Tilde~ Cocktail Comp. Entries close 21 June

The team at Tilde~ have crafted a liquid that not only boasts character and dimension, but also champions quality and locality from start to finish. Tilde~ is the next natural evolution of vodka, so they are challenging you to reimagine the category and create something extraordinary. And the winner of this comp will get a free ride to Sydney Bar Week.

BRIEF~ CELEBRATING THE WEIRD & WONDERFUL

Think interesting flavour combinations, or perhaps draw inspiration from a unique friend, place, person or experience. Cocktails are just as much about what’s outside the glass as well as inside. This is what separates an everyday drinking experience from a memorable one.

Innovation doesn’t mean forgetting the foundations on which an idea was built. Think outside the box, remember the stranger the better. And it goes without saying that your creation needs to be balanced and tasty.
