Christian Louboutin inspired cherrygood cocktail
To get his famous Grey Goose Winter Ball off to a great start, Rocket Man Elton John turned to Cherrygood for help.
Cherrygood, the UK’s leading tart cherry juice, was a key ingredient in the event’s signature ‘Red Carpet’ cocktail inspired by legendary shoe designer Christian Louboutin.
Louboutin was one of the featured characters for the evening and the spectacular scarlet red Cherrygood cocktail was created in his honour. Even the cocktail bar was shaped in the style of Louboutin’s iconic scarlet red soles.
Guests at the Grey Goose Winter Ball included Dame Shirley Bassey, David Walliams, Ruby Wax, Graham Norton, Alexandra Burke, Jaime Winstone, Tamara Ecclestone, Olivia Inge, Liberty Ross and Marcus Wareing.
The event raised more than £500,000 to support the ongoing work of the Elton John Aids Foundation.
