The Top 10 Australian finalists have been announced in the world-renowned Patrón Perfectionists Cocktail Competition, and Grace Rawlins is repping South Australia.
In a competition first, consumers were invited to vote for their favourite creation among the Top 30 cocktails.
The three bartenders with the highest public votes made it through to the Top 10 , whilst the remaining seven were chosen by Patrón.
The next round of judging will see an Australian winner announced, who will receive an all expenses paid trip to compete in the global final in Jalisco, Mexico (Covid allowing).
