YouTube Video Description

In 1869, as the Suez Canal neared completion, French sculptor Frédéric-Auguste Bartholdi tried to convince Ferdinand de Lesseps and the Egyptian government to let him build a sculpture called “Egypt Bringing Light to Asia” at its Mediterranean entrance. The project - a 90-foot tall Egyptian lady - was originally intended to welcome sailors from the Suez Canal into the Mediterranean. The monument has since become better known as the Statue of Liberty. It could be said that today's Lady Liberty inspired Bartholdi's very own American Dream! Our signature twist on the classic Collins is inspired by the three continents that made Liberty happen. Using almond, apricot, lemon, pomegranate, watermelon flavors from Egypt, yuzu from Asia and bourbon from America, this fruity and exotic cocktail instils world travel in one easy drink.
