PARK CITY, Utah — The Park City Area Restaurant Association has released a limited-edition Mountain Mixer cocktail recipe book celebrating the bartenders, local businesses and recipes featured in this summer’s reimagined Mountain Mixer Cocktail Contest.
Available now at parkcityrestaurants.com, the 2025 Mountain Mixer Recipe Book highlights the creativity and craftsmanship of Park City mixologists who competed in the 2025 cocktail showdown. The book serves as both a keepsake and a practical guide, allowing readers to recreate contest-winning cocktails while learning more about the people behind the bar.

“We are thrilled to unveil our 2025 Mountain Mixer Recipe Book to celebrate our local mixologists and their cocktails from this summer’s contest,” said Ginger Wicks, executive director of the Park City Area Restaurant Association. “Readers will have a chance to craft award-winning recipes in their own kitchens, enjoy conversations with each participating bartender, and gain a deeper appreciation for the immense talent we have brimming right here in the Park City community.”
The Mountain Mixer recipe book explores Park City’s cocktail history and celebrates the local mixologists whose innovation and creativity have shaped today’s thriving bar scene. It also recaps the 2025 Mountain Mixer Cocktail Contest, which culminated in a stage presentation before a panel of judges and a local audience.
Pages spotlight the top winners, finalists and honorable pours, along with the spirits — crafted locally in Park City — that were featured in this year’s cocktails.
The 2025 Mountain Mixer Recipe Book is available for a limited time. Copies are available online at parkcityrestaurants.com or in person at The Collective Park City and Park City Desserts.
