Tennis legend Serena Williams took a break from competing at the US Open to indulge in a fan-favorite cocktail, the Honey Deuce, a delightful blend of vodka, lemonade, and raspberry liqueur with signature melon balls.
Serena Williams, a six-time Grand Slam winner, graced the stands of Arthur Ashe Stadium during Day 7 of the US Open, the final Grand Slam of the year. Although absent from the court, Williams enjoyed the tournament's atmosphere and partook in a delectable tennis-themed treat: the Honey Deuce cocktail.
This popular drink has become a staple at the US Open since its debut in 2007, boasting over 2.25 million purchases on stadium grounds. The Honey Deuce combines Grey Goose vodka, refreshing lemonade, and a touch of raspberry liqueur, topped with a trio of signature melon balls.

In a playful video she posted on social media, Williams shared her first-time experience with the cocktail, stating, "I've always been playing" and never had the opportunity to try it before. She filmed herself taking a sip and exclaimed, "Honey, that's not deuce! That's called Honey Ad-In or Honey Ace. Let's rename it, 'cause it's good."
Williams' preference for a tequila-based version of the cocktail adds a unique twist to the drink's original recipe. A Honey Deuce costs $23 at this year's US Open and comes served in a souvenir cup emblazoned with the names of past tournament winners, including Williams herself.

The cocktail has not only delighted fans but has also left its mark on the tournament's history. In 2017, a Honey Deuce was auctioned off for a staggering $3,000, demonstrating its popularity and appeal among tennis enthusiasts.
While Williams may have been absent from competition, her presence at the US Open was still felt. Her enjoyment of the Honey Deuce cocktail added a touch of lightheartedness and excitement to the tournament, reminding everyone that even tennis legends can appreciate a refreshing and delectable treat.
