Arizona Cocktail Weekend wrapped up with the annual Last Slinger Standing bartending competition, which pits bartenders from the Southwest against one another. The competition was bracket-style, with competitors facing off one-on-one for each round, with each victor moving on to the next round. After hours of competitive rounds, Joshua James of Clever Koi was crowned the winner. Check out our photos from the Last Slinger Standing competition at Young's Market on Monday, February 19, 2018.
