We may be the newest bar in town, but we’re challenging Tahoe’s best. 🍸⚡

On Sunday, October 18, Tessie’s is bringing together bartenders from 8 of South Lake Tahoe’s favorite local bars for the first Battle of the Bartenders.

Three rounds. Mystery ingredients. Speed cocktails. Plenty of showmanship. Each team will shake, stir, and battle their way through the night until one is crowned champion.

And there’s a lot on the line: $1,000 cash, the championship belt, custom bar tools, and the winning cocktail on the Tessie’s menu for 30 days. 🏆

Come pick your favorites, cheer on your local bar, and watch Tahoe’s bartenders put on a show.
