One of P&O Cruises’ bar team members, Siddhant Naik, has been short-listed as one of only five finalists in the hotly contested international Bacardi Legacy Competition.

Drawn from more than 1600 entries from cruise lines and bar teams from all over the world, Siddhant’s ‘Bitter Blanca’ creation was selected as a Top 5 Most Promising Cocktails of the 2019 Competition.  

As Simon Blacoe, P&O Food and Beverage Director, reports, Siddhant has been invited to attend the finals event in San Juan, Puerto Rico, in February next year.

There, along with the other finalists, he will present the ‘Bitter Blanca’ on stage in the quest for the grand prize.

“This is the first time P&O has been represented at The Bacardi Legacy Competition and we’re very proud that Siddhant is representing our team,” Simon said.

“Other finalists may come from brands with bigger ships and perhaps more people in their team but I would like to think that our support for Siddhant in this great achievement will be far greater.”
