Dickie Cullimore from 42BELOW dropped in this week and offered to make me a 42BELOW honey, honey bear cocktail. How could I resist?

I have to say, I have made a few of these since the interview. They are so easy; all that is required is 42BELOW Honey Vodka, ice, limes and Mac's ginger beer. To see Dickie making this cocktail check out the video below.

Eight years have passed since the Cocktail World Cup first began matching great competitors in the field of mixology, and each year has been topping the last in terms of new innovations in vodka cocktail making. This year's event is the eighth 42BELOW Cocktail World Cup and the biggest so far, with talented bar tenders thrashing it out in the regional competition. Three go on to represent New Zealand in the finals in Queenstown.

The regional competition will be in Tauranga on July 10 - if you think you have the skills then get in and register on cocktailworldcup.com. Good luck!

The Weekend Sun has a bottle of 42 Below Manuka Honey flavoured Vodka for lucky readers who can tell us the ingredients for a honey bear cocktail. Enter online here.
