The partnership between [Grey Goose](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frances-tiafoe) and the US Open is one of the longest-running spirits partnerships in sports, and in 2025, the Official Vodka of the tournament is celebrating with the [Last Serve Bar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Caroni-rum) pop-up at New York’s Grand Central Terminal.

In 2024 alone, the Grey Goose Honey Deuce cocktail generated over $12.8 million in sales with more than 556,000 cocktails sold by the [USTA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunscreen-partner). At the pop-up bar, which runs from August 27th to 29th in Vanderbilt Hall, commuters have the chance to sip a complimentary, sample-sized "tini" version of the signature cocktail and espresso martini cocktails. Perfect for capping off the experience of watching a daytime match or preparing for an evening one, the Last Serve Bar delivers winning serves.
