TIFF Cocktail Recipes Part 1

By / Wine + Drinks / September 4th, 2013 / 2

Welcome to the Toronto International Film Festival, aka TIFF. There will be a lot going on between opening night on Thursday, September 5 and the finale on Sunday, September 15. This week, Quench will keep you up-to-date on the latest treats and tipples you can make at home to complement your own TIFF parties.

As usual, one of the highlights at TIFF is the party circuit. Every night there’s something interesting happening where you’re likely to rub elbows with someone famous. You can find detailed information on the various events at TIFF. In the meantime, Grey Goose vodka is sponsoring a series of parties over the opening weekend of the festival where a new collection of cocktails created by Global Ambassador Joe McCanta will be served to the stars and filmmakers. Passengers flying in and out of Toronto International Airport will have an exclusive opportunity to sample the same cocktails being served at the Festival’s parties at a Grey Goose pop-up bar opening for one week only in the Arrivals area of the Airport.
