A frozen iteration of Nick Mautone's original Honey Deuce cocktail, first made in 2016 for the US Open tennis tournament. Nick Mautone was serving as the brand ambassador for Grey Goose Vodka when the brand became the official vodka sponsor of the United States Tennis Association's Open tournament. One evening, shortly after being assigned the task of creating the tournament's official cocktail, he observed that honeydew melon balls bore a resemblance to small tennis balls, which sparked the idea for his Grey Goose Vodka-based drink.
