San Francisco, CA -- (SBWire) -- 07/09/2013 --According to Travel + Leisure readers, San Francisco has made the number one spot as America's Snobbiest City. To celebrate the new title, GRC Beverages LLC, headquartered in San Francisco, is sharing one of its best new cocktail recipes -- Xi Acai Mint Lemonade.

So what makes this all time summer favorite the best? One word: quality. The main ingredient in this blush-hued beverage is Xi Acai (zee ah-sigh-ee) a new 25 proof ready-to-drink, gluten free, low calorie cocktail mixer.

Robert Nathanson, EVP of Xi Acai, “San Francisco is renowned for its finely crafted cocktails and world class mixologists, we want quality and we want the best.” And the best it is, Xi is a recent Gold Medal Winner at the 2013 International Spirits Competition (90 points) and named Best New Spirit at the 2013 NCB Show and Expo in Las Vegas, NV.
