Chopin Vodka and Clase Azul Tequila cocktails will be featured as the exclusive spirits of the 23rd Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards® on Sunday, January 29, 2017, as well as at the official Post-Awards Gala co-hosted by Time Inc.’s People and the Entertainment Industry Foundation. With the help of Los Angeles mixologist Lisa Kopenhayer, four distinctive cocktails will be available to guests at the star-studded Post-Awards Gala.
“The Outstanding Performance” showcases Chopin Potato Vodka in an ensemble with infused Fresh Cucumbers, Aloe Water, Fresh Elderflower, Fresh Lime Juice and Infused Lemon Peel Garnish. The second, cheekily called “Fix It in Post,” shines the spotlight on Clase Azul Plata Tequila made from 100% Blue Weber Agave, prepared in harmony with La Pinta Pomegranate Tequila Liqueur, Fresh Marinated Pineapple Juice, Fresh Lemon Juice, Agave Raw Nectar, and topped with a Jalapeno Garnish.
The other two cocktails are “The Actor Goes To,” for a Tequila and Fresh Orange Peel drink, and “The Classic” for the finest Martini.
“It’s truly limitless the number of inventive cocktails that can be created with Clase Azul Tequilas, and Chopin Vodkas,” says Dana Chandler COO and Executive Vice President Chopin Imports. “It’s a privilege to be part of this celebration, and we look forward to raising a glass of Clase Azul and Chopin in a toast to the outstanding performances and talented actors honored this year at the SAG Awards.”
