At last night's Taste of the Nation event, the cocktail competition was dominated by the team from Gaetano's composed of Kyle West and Tony Giovanni. The bartending duo, first timers in this competition, beat out the pros from Williams & Graham, Ace, and the Green Russell, among others, with a cocktail named Todd's Overall Delicious. The Leopold's Whiskey-based drink, named to acknowledge Todd Leopold's overall-wearing habits, combined the booze with ginger peach tea, pomegranate apple cider, a bit of orange juice, and a dash of orange bitters and fresh lemon juice.
