Fair food and beverages inspire fair-goers to try something delightfully different and in preparation for the Great New York State Fair, 1911 concocted an exclusive specialty frozen cocktail featuring its new Cotton Candy Vodka.
This frozen cocktail made with berry lemonade and Cotton Candy Vodka is a magical drink generously topped with whipped cream and colorful dust, promising refreshment and a share-worthy experience that demands to be documented with a photo before the first sip.
On Instagram, 1911 asked for help from its community to come up with a name for the exclusive state fair cocktail. The winning name for the colorful cocktail—The Cosmic Love (1911's version)—references Taylor Swift’s discography. Fittingly, 1911 will host a Taylor Swift look-a-like contest at its stand at the Great New York State Fair on August 30th.
