Monica Casillas-Rios is the MICHELIN Guide Chicago 2023 Exceptional Cocktails Award Winner

"Congratulations to Monica Casillas-Rios of Elske, the 2023 MICHELIN Guide Chicago, Exceptional Cocktail Award Winner, presented by Basil Hayden! First introduced to the world of cocktails in 2015, Casillas-Rios quickly made her way through the classics and learned what she did like and didn't like (Sazerac, yay; Cosmo, nay). Since then, the award winner's approach to crafting cocktails has become simple—less is more. And by utilizing simple ingredients and things commonly found in the kitchen, she's done exactly that." - MICHELIN Guide
