The Creative Origin Story Of The US Open's Honey Deuce Cocktail - Tasting Table
Briefly

"The honey deuce was engineered to be not only delicious and crowd-pleasing but refreshing, too - it's the hottest time of year, after all."
"Mautone had settled on an easy-drinking, perfectly balanced sweet-and-tart blend of Grey Goose vodka, Chambord raspberry liqueur, and lemonade, creating a thirst-quenching cocktail with mass appeal."
"He added honeydew balls as a garnish, inspired by their resemblance to tennis balls, and named his cocktail honey deuce, a clever play on words."
"A whopping two million honey deuces have been sold since 2011, showcasing the cocktail's mass appeal and effectiveness in quenching thirsts at the U.S. Open."
