After two months of sippin’ in Roswell, the wait is finally over, and the 2019 “Best Sip in Roswell” winners are—The Whiskey Project’s “Me So Honey” in the alcoholic category and Scooter’s “Peanut Butter Mocha Caramelicious ” in the non-alcoholic category.

During the event, which ran from June 1 through July 31, 46 participating restaurants each featured a unique summer-inspired specialty drink not already available on their menus.

Patrons then rated each sip they tried on SummerSippin.com or the Summer Sippin’ app, which is available for free on both iPhone and Android, and those ratings were used to determine the “Best Sips in Roswell” for the year.

“Congratulations to this year’s ‘Best Sip in Roswell’ recipients,” said Steve Stroud, Executive Director of Roswell Inc. “Roswell’s food and beverage scene is a leading industry in the city and one that sets it apart—with over 200 family-owned or chef-driven establishments. While we could only crown one first-place winner in each category, we applaud all of this year’s participants for showcasing Roswell as a premier destination for enjoying well-crafted drinks and exceptional food.”

Below are the top drinks in each category:
