Dan Cronin of the Alibi Room about to take his Sustainable Communities project to Barcelona
Winner of the Torres Brandy Zero Challenge Sustainable Bar Canadian Championship and bar manager of the Alibi Room in Downtown Sudbury, Dan Cronin is setting his sights on glory in the upcoming International Championship, set to take place on March 30 in Barcelona, Spain.
To win, “[competitors] will have to demonstrate how to run a cocktail bar with the lowest possible environmental impact and create the most innovative eco-cocktail,” Torres Brandy states on its website. Cronin’s 2022 submission, the Backyard Toddy, uses Torres brandy , honey from a local apiary, lemon juice and, the kicker ingredient: Labrador tea.
“So rather than getting foods from faraway to process into cocktail ingredients, my hope is to be able to use ingredients that grow literally in our backyards, and in the surrounding woods, in order to capture the flavours of our local land and have our drink program reflect the actual land on which it is being grown,” Cronin told Sudbury.com last year.
The format of his initiative was inspired by the Downtown Sudbury Cleanup Program, an initiative of the YMCA and the Downtown Sudbury Business Improvement Area Association.
