Tickets now on sale for Kiwanis Best South Cape Martini Competition

2 min read

If you have an adventurous streak and love to try new things, then why not give a Cape Cole-Tini a whirl – or how about slipping into a Mystic Mango or a Chocolate Covered Pretzel Martini.

These are just a few of the creative concoctions to be shaken up by South Cape restaurants, bars and nightclubs as part of the seventh annual Kiwanis Best South Cape Martini Competition to be held Jan. 26.

Guests at the competition will leisurely travel around the South Cape entertainment district on a special fleet of trolleys, stopping at the participating establishments to relax with their custom cocktails and appetizer.

At the end of the evening, everyone votes on their favorite drink. There are three categories of martinis: classic, exotic and dessert. The competition is fierce.

Get your tickets in advance. There’s just 1,000 of them to go around and the event has always sold out.
