1 Official Rules for Entry Ginworld Regional Corpse Reviver Competition The Corpse Reviver #2 has seen a huge reawakening over the past decade helping bartenders bring gin back to the forefront of consumer imbibing and awareness. The drink itself is a perfect balance of botanical, citrus, herbal, and bittersweet components. Literally, a perfect balance being an equal parts recipe with a few drops. In this competition, we are asking participants to redefine this gin cocktail utilizing those who have helped the local industry grow. All participants in each city will only be allowed to use gins made locally in conjunction with the absinthe sponsor. In addition, there will be a boomerang aspect to this competition. The winning cocktail from each city will be pitted against the winning cocktail from the other two cities in a final blind judging in San Francisco. Winners from each city will receive a prize and the Boomerang winner will receive an additional Grand Prize to be announced! Eligibility: The contest is open to anyone residing in the states of Maryland, Virginia, Washington DC, Missouri and California region at least 21 years old. Bartenders must actively work as a bartender in a bar or restaurant. Sponsor s Right to Entries: You do not transfer ownership of your Entry by entering the Contest.
