While Vancouverites are having UBER deliver puppies to their offices today, its hurts our eyeballs knowing that Seattle office workers had cocktails delivered to their offices by bicycling bartenders instead last week. Yes, St-Germain French Elderflower Liqueur and Uber partnered up for BIKETENDER, which saw local bartenders – good ones, mind (eg. Logan Chinn, Jana Howard, Kevin Orbis, among other) – preparing the perfect summer afternoon aperitif inside the offices of our neighbours.
The custom-built, vintage-style bikes were inspired by the French tri-pourteur beauties, rides that date back to the mid-1800s and are still used to transport the delicate, freshly-picked elderflowers that create St-Germain liqueur in France today. Watch the clip of what could have made Vancouver a whole lot cooler. Instead, puppies. WTF?
