To enter, participants must "like" the Zoo’s Facebook page and submit one name in the comment sections of the page’s contest post.

Zoo staff will read over all submissions and choose a winner on Monday, June 13.
The cocktail’s ingredients were provided by Republic National Distributing Company and the recipe is by Secret Sauce F&B, the company that operates Vesta, Steuben’s and Ace, the event’s VIP Party caterer.
