Why is this a good deal? Because for $45, you are going to drink a bunch of cocktails made with the top recipes around. And you know exactly what brands of liquor you're getting in advance (look at the sponsors): Appleton Estate, Hendricks, Pernod, Plymouth, Remy Cointreau, and Skyy. Not exactly crap-shelf liquor.

Who cares about making the damn drinks? That's just a bonus. Figure you get five, or even six cocktails (the event description lists four hotels "and others"). Each cocktail you get increases the value of this price. So, $45 really isn't that bad when you think about the quality you're getting for that price, along with the fact that you are getting multiple quality cocktails and a handful of hors d'oeuvres. For you math-challenged Districters, here's how it'd breakdown:
- 5 cocktails: $9 each
- 6 cocktails: $7.50 each
- 7 cocktails: ~$6.50 each
- 8 cocktails: $5.62 each
- 9 cocktails: $5 each
You ain't gettin' double-digit cocktails, I assume, so I stopped there. Granted, I haven't actually done this deal myself, so I can't speak from personal experience. But, it seems like at least a decent deal.

Can't make it? You can still learn to make a great Seelbach here.
