I like my martinis extra dirty with olives; my mojitos with freshly squeezed lime juice as opposed to lime cordial; and my gin with a splash of St. Germain. I know what I like in my drinks, just like you do!
We all have our preferences when it comes to our favorite drinks; a key ingredient to having a superb drink starts with a mixologist who knows how to perfectly execute our tasty libations!
The very interactive and engaging Canadian mixology competition, Made With Love, is back again for its third year!
Made With Love is an international event for cocktail enthusiasts and food epicureans. It has become an annual celebration of the craft cocktails industry. The public, along with a panel of renowned judges, are invited to witness this interactive competition by savouring exclusive and extravagant creations and vote for their favourites.
Founded in 2009 in Montreal, MADE WITH LOVE has gained popularity through its mixology competition where passion and excellence bring the bartending community together to push the limits of creativity. Today, MADE WITH LOVE is active in 2 countries (Canada and Spain), and continues to develop internationally. – Made With Love
The two crowned winners of each category,
Public’s Choice and Judges’ Choice, will represent Ottawa at the National Finals
taking place in the Spring. The finalists will try to win the coveted title of
best Barchef in the country, and have a chance to win one of 10 trips to one of
the Made With Love affiliated distilleries :
–
2 trips to Italy with Campari
–
2 trips to Nicaragua with Flor de Cana
–
2 trips to New Orleans with Sazerac
–
2 trips to Kentucky (USA) with Woodford Reserve
–
2 trips with MADE WITH LOVE
Vying for Ottawa’s top mixologist are five finalists that have taken the time to answer some of my questions as they get ready for the big event next week:
What cocktail have you submitted for the competition?
WARREN FREDERICK: I decided to make my cocktail for a few reasons. One being I wanted to incorporate the different flavour profiles of Woodford Reserve and make a cocktail highlighting the key flavour notes and tell a story while you sip my cocktail and we are a coffee shop so there will be some coffee element to my cocktail to match the profile of my spirit.
SHANNON BLUE NANIBUSH: For Made with Love this year, I was appointed Southern Comfort, and my immediate thought was “how do I balance the sweetness?” So for my cocktail I chose to do a stirred cocktail, with citric acid, black cherry juice and black sesame syrup. I wanted to keep it simple as far as ingredients go and something that came out very dark in colour. I think a stirred Southern Comfort cocktail would stand out!
MIKE CAMPBELL: My drink will have Campari, a faux vermouth syrup made from scratch and ten infused with Korean gochuchillies and finished with house made spiced-orange bitters. I think my use of traditional Korean ingredients will help my cocktail stand out and not being afraid to use very over the top flavours while still maintaining a balanced drink.
MATTHEW AZEVEDO: I love a great gimlet. Love. So the drink I decided to make was heavily influenced by that, while I tried to put the heaviest Canadian spin on it possible. Ungava has such unique flavours that makes it stand out even amongst other pronounced flavours, so its given me some beautiful breathing room to play with.
DRAKE ROSS EVANS: The drink I’ve made for ‘Made with Love’ is a type of Tiki cocktail, Rum being the more predominant flavour with a juicy and silky finish. I personally love Tiki cocktails because there are so many neat and creative rum forward drinks.
What was the inspiration behind your creation?
WARREN FREDERICK:
My
inspiration behind my drink is the flavour wheel of Woodford Reserve and also coffee because we
are a coffee shop.
SHANNON
BLUE NANIBUSH: My theme for my cocktail was stemmed from my love
of westerns and goth culture, so think gothic western!
MIKE CAMPBELL:I decided
to make a cocktail inspired by some of the unique flavors I experienced in
Korea, and same goes for my food pairing. Because I am not representing any
restaurant I feel like it would be the most authentic thing to just make what I
know and I what I believe will be a very new flavor profile for most people
attending the event.
MATTHEW
AZEVEDO: My number one inspiration was everything Canada. Ungava is a
beautiful testament to the great botanicals this country has to offer, and that
made me want to showcase the possibilities that can come from utilizing what
this great country has to offer.
DRAKE ROSS EVANS:The
inspiration for my theme and flavours came from Nicaragua, a place of lakes and
volcanoes. When the cocktail came to be a vibrant orange colour it brought me
to Danakil Ethiopia and their volcanic lakes. I knew from the beginning I
wanted to make a drink using Horchata, a refreshing rice milk drink that’s very
popular in central America. Horchata will be my stand out ingredient in this
drink. Orange and lime as a classic citrus that will bring familiarity to the
guests, fresh carrot juice which I hope to bring a “wow factor”.
What accompanying appetizer will you be serving with your cocktail?
WARREN FREDERICK:
That’s
a secret. Lol!
SHANNON BLUE NANIBUSH: To go with
my theme I will be serving a chili style hodge podge with sesame elements. I
wanted something rustic and not sweet this year.
MIKE CAMPBELL: I’ll be pairing my drink with a
traditional Kimchi-Jiggae which is a spicy Korean soup, very common in Korean
restaurants and bars.
MATTHEW
AZEVEDO: My chef and I are still in the process, so food pairing will
have to be a surprise!!
DRAKE ROSS EVANS: My food pairing is a combination
of fresh Nicaraguan flavours. Serving a pork meatball with a achiote and sour
orange sauce. Topped with a spiced carrot and beet slaw all served on a
plantain chip. This savoury, spicy, herbal appetizer hits the flavour palate
that my cocktail doesn’t. Lake Citrine (the cocktails name) brings the citrus,
sweet, and silky all to life. With these two combinations, your mouth will be
listening to a symphony of flavours hitting each note on the tongue.

Learning about new destinations and different cultures is always a blast! 😃
Several evenings ago, I had the pleasure of being invited to the Embassy of the Czech Republic😍
Learning about their culture, their unique travel experiences, and surprisingly, how inexpensive this country is, when compared to other European destinations, is always good💰💰
To start the Czech Tourism event, guests had the pleasure to hear from Czech Republic Ambassador of Canada, Martin Tlapa.
Tasty libations and Czech dishes were enjoyed by the guests. Even though I enjoy my 🍾 bubbles, I enjoyed tasting Czech`s prized beer 😉🍻

Friday night, I had the privilege of attending the 2024 Canadian Culinary Championships - Mystery Wine Challenge - People`s Choice Award🥇🥇@greatkitchenparty . Congratulations to all the chefs involved in this intense competition. The chefs needed to create a dish to pair with the mystery wine. Each chef was given a tricky budget of $550 for the 250 guests. I was witnessing creativity at its best!!😋 . The winning dish🥇 (centered in the middle of the photo) was created by JP Dublado: Red Deer Resort and Casino, Red Deer AB Dish: beet & soy cured albacore tuna - ponzu gel - tomato water - puffed wild rice - beet green oil . Amazing talent from all the chefs as they paired with the mystery wine (a 2021 Lailey Vineyard Zweigelt)🍷🍷 . #foodblogger ##foodgram #foodcompetition #travelblogger #CCC2024 #greatkitchenparty #peopleschoice #peopleschoiceawards #underpressure #foodandwine #underbudget #onbudget #culinarycompetition #thefoodteasedrinks #thefoodteaseeats #ifwtwa1 #tmac
A classic is always a classic!🤩 . @alssteakhouse has been serving food lovers steak, seafood, and tantalizing martinis since 1967!!! Just incredible! 🥩🍤🍸 . As an appetizer, I must say their calamari was outstanding, and believe it or not, their portion was unlike any other eatery - there was so much!! 😮 . And now, for the main attraction - their 14oz Rib-eye steak. The flavour of this steak was a melt-in-your-mouth gift! I couldn`t stop eating it. I forgot how delicious their steaks are. With their sides and salad with their signature garlic dressing, it was a real feast, to say the least.😋 . I`m already looking forward to my next visit...like I said, when a classic is this tasty, any excuse to visit is a good one‼️ . #foodblogger #foodlovers #foodgram #travelbloggers #alssteakhouse #steakhouse #steak #oldschool #oldschoolclassic #finedining #supportlocalbusiness #ottawaeats #ottawarestaurants #ribeyesteak🥩 #thefoodteaseeats #thefoodteasedrinks #ifwtwa1 #tmac #foodie #wantmore

Explore and savour! 😋 . Exploring different regions of the beautiful island of Antigua🏝🏝🐚🐚 Breathtaking panoramic views from Shirley Heights, a restored military lookout, and gun battery was such a visual treat!😍 .

The Devil made me do it! 👹😉 . Antigua’s rich history and spectacular topography provide a variety of popular sightseeing opportunities. . One of those stunning sightseeing opportunities is the Devil`s Bridge. The sight and sounds of this natural wonder are something else. 👹🌊 . Natural blowholes around the arch shoot up water and spray, caused by the Atlantic Ocean waves. Simply beautiful and capitavating and yet dangerous if too close to the blowholes.😲😍 . #foodblogger #travelbloggers #antiguaandbarbuda #loveantiguabarbuda #passportready #naturalwonders #devilsbridge #antigua #naturalphenomenon #ocean #sightseeing #mustsee #mothernature #touristattraction #thefoodteasetravel #tmactravel #tmac #ifwtwa1 #blowhole #adrenaline
To discover any new destination, I need to explore and experience their local dishes and eateries. 😋😋 . Big thanks to @eat_n_lime_food_tours and to the @antiguaandbarbuda tourism board for providing me such a tasty treat!!🤗 . Eat N Lime`s motto resonates with me so much...`We are hanging out and chilling, enjoying eachothers company with good food` - This is my happy place!😍😋 . The delicious food tour started in Saint John, the capital of Antigua and Barbuda, at the Heritage Quay Complex, where one can easily see all the cruise ships coming in and offloading their passengers. . I had the pleasure of tasting these local treats during the food tour: 1) Island Bhive: shrimp fritters with garlic sauce - so delicious 😋 🦐 2) Quin Farara Liquor Store: Rum tasting and learning how to make an Antiguan Old Fashioned cocktail with their 5-year-old English Harbour Rum.🍹 3) Roti King: a very generous roti that was packed with flavour: chickpea bread, potatoes, chicken, Indian curry, turmeric, and ginger. 4) Brownies Bakery: well-known for its unique bread offerings. Fun fact: it`s also a well-known hangover dish.🍞😉Tracey Ann, our informative and engaging Eat n Lime Food Tours guide, showed us Brownies Bakery`s famous bread - cinnamon butter and cheese. 5) Patti Delight: Jamaican patties with a twist. Jamaican beef patty with bacon, cheese, tomatoes, and lettuce. More please!!😋😋 6) To wash down all this delicious food, we stopped at One Stone Ital Shack - a Jamaican rasta shop known for their fresh fruit juices. Passion fruit for the win!! Tasted amazing and truth be told, I mixed my leftover juice with some local Rum as my afternoon cocktail.🍹😉 . I highly recommend taking part in food tours when discovering new destinations as you not only learn about the culture but also learn how food plays an integral role in the history of the specific region. Eat N Lime`s food tour was exceptional - great memories from this excursion. 😍🤗 . #foodblogger #foodlovers #foodphotography #foodtourism #foodtour #travelbloggers #loveantiguabarbuda #eatnlime #antiguabarbuda #antigua #tmactravel #ifwtwa1 #thefoodteasedrinks #thefoodteaseeats #thefoodteasetravel #alwaysexploring

Where`s my rubber ducky 🐤😉?! . A year ago this week, I was enjoying some bath time while in @discoverdominica 🏖🏝😍 . Dominica`s lush scenery is extraordinary, and I`m grateful to have been invited to visit their beautiful island😊😊 . Visiting Wotten Waven Sulphur Springs was perfect to relax and rid of some unwanted stress. And the outdoor bath surrounded by all that green landscape was simply the BEST! An unforgettable experience! 🤩 . Dominica`s adventure activities - diving, snorkeling, hiking, kayaking, swimming - are just some of the many ways to enjoy this tropical island.🤿🙂 .

No trip would be complete without a delicious food tour😋😍 . I had the pleasure of taking part in @tours_de_la_table guided walking tour - exploring Montréal`s Chinatown. Engaging host, interesting cultural facts, and my favourite, tasty dishes made for a great afternoon.😋😍 . Having a very engaging and informative guide is key to any successful tour, and Mélissa Simard, founder of Round Table Tours/Tours De La Table nailed it. Melissa has a wealth of knowledge regarding both Canadian and Chinese history and its connection to Montreal. . During the tour, I learned that the Chinese Holiday Inn, the only Chinese Holiday Inn in Canada other than China, all the rooms and decor in the hotel are done in respect to the Feng Shui practice. Additionally, I also learned, amongst many other interesting facts regarding Montreal and its beloved Chinatown, that 50% of businesses in Montréal`s Chinatown are Vietnamese owned. . Now to the food😋😋 ● The classic Vietnamese dish, Bánh mi (Vietnamese sandwich), was perfect to start off this yummy culinary tour!🥖😋 ● @dobeandandy restaurant: BBQ pork, BBQ duck, chicken, and crispy pork. 😍YES!!! ● @chezchili_mtl: Traditional Hunan and Sichuan dishes are their specialty. I devoured their tofu with spicy blackbean sauce!! AND their spicy lotus was amazing! I was pleasantly surprised as to how much I enjoyed this dish! 😍 Plus, their stir-fried Cumin lamb...I could have eaten all of it!!!😋😍 ● Kim Fung eatery: dim sum dishes of rice noodles, dumplings, cuttlefish, and Shumai (Chinese dumplings). 🥟🥟 ● For drssert: Dragons beard candy dessert: Similar to cotton candy, but with some saltiness from peanuts and sweetness from coconut...super tasty!😍 . I highly recommend this style of food tour as it`s very interesting and ridiculously TASTY 👌 😋😍 . #foodblogger #foodlovers #foodgram #foodphotography #travelgram #travelbloggers #mtlmoments #mtl #foodtour #foodtourism #chinatown #montrealchinatown #discoveringnewplaces #mtlresto #supportlocalbusiness #smallbusiness #presstrip #tmactravel #tmac #ifwtwa1 #thefoodteaseeats #thefoodteasetravel
Labeled as `hunting lodge meets speakeasy`, the @foxymtl restaurant perfectly executes each dish with their wood-fire cooking🔥🔥😍 . All aspects of this dining experience were spot on - warm hospitality, tantalizing cocktails, and dishes that pop with flavour. 🥃🍸🔥 . Foxy`s head chef, Catherine Couvet Desrosiers and her talented brigade made exceptional wood-fire dishes, that left me wanting for more!! . Sabrina master mixologist at Foxy, made several tantalizing libations for me, but one stood out like no other - the New Delhi.😍🍸🥃 The New Delhi Cocktail was by far the best cocktail I`ve had in a very, very long time! Exotically addictive! 😋 . Dishes that I was spoiled with: Homemade feta and pita: 1) burnt eggplant, blueberry, walnut and honey. 2) Radicchio: garlic confit, anchovy, olive and sourdough bread. 3) Cappelletti: corn, chanterelle and nasturtium. 4) Ontario walleye: porcini, lobster mushroom, sherry and chevril. Stunning dishes!!😋 .
