Celebrating 10 Years with zest!
Words by Enrico Bettesworth on Oct 02, 2007
As the sun set on Thursday 27th of September, a red carpet was rolled out to celebrate the first 10 years of Lemonade. Ten years on, the fizz was still strong and the party vibe was alive with effervescence.
Over 100 clients and suppliers together with friends and family turned up at the Rose Street Artist Market to celebrate the milestone and cheer on the next chapter in a great journey so far. Some came solo while others came in bunches but all were hand-picked from our finest selection.
Upon arrival guests were handed sweet Lemontini's in sparkling sugar encrusted glasses (Homemade Lemonade, Vodka and heaps of shredded Mint). This was followed by a delicious Lemon themed cocktail menu which had mouths watering for more of the zesty offerings.
As the night wore on, two brave punters (Ash and Christian -- Cheers boys) squeezed into some juicy foam lemon costumes for a bit of of pulp and rind. The crowd circled around the rim as they performed zesty dance moves with lots of flavour.
By midnight everyone could be forgiven for feeling a tad carbonated and as the doors were closed on the first chapter of the Lemonade journey, some with heads left a little fizzy made their way home to refresh for the next day while others squeezed a little more out of a fantastic night.
We'd like to specifically like to thank: Emma Rosen and team for the fabulous food, Greg Young and staff for the great refreshments and service, Gazi for the photography, Antoine and Wayne from Rothfield Print Management for all their help over the years and for the 10 year / First Edition of the Stand, Christian and Adam for the use of the amazing Rose Street Space and everyone who has been involved / worked for / worked with / supported / been friends with Lemonade!
