The eighth annual Bacardi Cruise Competition announced the 2013 Bacardi Bartender of the Year and Bacardi Chef of the Year at an exclusive awards event held recently at the Bacardi Americas headquarters in Coral Gables.

Adri Ford of Carnival Cruise Lines achieved the extraordinary when she was named the Bacardi Bartender of the Year for the second consecutive year. Her winning cocktail, the Bacardi Caribbean Hideaway, was created using Bacardi Oakheart, a smooth and smoky, spiced spirit drink that this year was the required ingredient for the signature cocktail category.

The Bacardi Chef of the Year was won by Alfredo Marzi of Princess Cruises for his dish Arawak’s Caribbean-style pork chop, which won the entrée category and was made using Bacardi Superior rum.

“With this year’s competition launched in the 150th anniversary year of Bacardi rum, it’s fitting that both winners’ recipes were inspired by Bacardi,” says Zachary Sulkes, regional manager, Bacardi Travel Retail Americas.
