Your ticket to experiencing the flavors of the legendary US Open tennis tournament from the comfort of your own home is here! The signature cocktail of this major sporting event, beloved by many and dubbed the Honey Deuce, is now yours to mix and savor.

The Honey Deuce is not just a much-adored feature of the esteemed tennis tournament, but it has also emerged as New York City's preferred drink as the summer season draws to a close. The Recreation Bar in FiDi, L’Americana in Irving Place and the Refinery Rooftop are among those venues giving patrons a taste of the trademark US Open refreshment.

Let's explore the backstory of the Honey Deuce, and uncover how you can concoct your very own or request one at your favorite bar.

"The Grey Goose Honey Deuce is a perfect example of how a judiciously chosen mix of ingredients can yield a sophisticated and balanced cocktail," shares Maxime Belfand, who serves as New York Brand Ambassador for Grey Goose with 10BEST.

According to Belfand, Grey Goose vodka lays a smooth, high-quality base, while fresh lemonade introduces a punch of zest and tartness. A hit of raspberry liqueur strikes a balance with just the right level of sweetness. Collectively, they make for a libation that's light, refreshing, and easily consumed - a summer swan song in a glass for New Yorkers.

Its fame has surged well beyond the bounds of Manhattan. Tennis enthusiasts all across America proudly don Honey Deuce merchandise and some even flaunt the gear at wedding events.

Belfand expresses, "Today, fans of the sport eagerly anticipate sipping a Grey Goose Honey Deuce at the tournament. This drink, originally conceived as the official cocktail of the US Open, has evolved into a cultural symbol, and for countless supporters, savoring a Grey Goose Honey Deuce is just as intrinsic to the tournament experience as watching the matches."

One of the crowning points about the Grey Goose Honey Deuce is that it's an ease to drink and a breeze to mix at home.
