What Is A Swizzle Affair?

Picture


​A Swizzle Affair is a cocktail competition featuring hometown bartenders and their signature cocktail recipes. They will compete for a "people's choice" award, allowing guests to sample their drinks. The bartenders will also prepare their cocktails before a panel of professional judges who will determine an overall winner. The first place winner and the people's choice winner will be awarded cash and/or prizes.  Local restaurants will also be in attendance to provide small servings of their best dishes.

Why Should I Swizzle?

Picture
A Swizzle Affair will help fund the Mississippi Restaurant Association Education Foundation (MRAEF) and its efforts to support the ProStart® Program in the state of Mississippi. ProStart is a two year high school program that teaches kids culinary and restaurant management skills to prepare them to enter the workforce, or to continue their education at culinary school or college. The MRAEF funds competitions for ProStart students to compete in the state competition and on the national level in Washington D.C. The MRAEF also awards scholarships to eligible ProStart graduates who are seeking a post-secondary education. The proceeds from ticket sales, beverage sales and silent auction funds will all benefit the MRAEF and Mississippi ProStart® students.
