Non-alcoholic distilled spirit FLUÈRE today (22) revealed its signature non-alcoholic cocktail and the livery of the Andretti United Extreme E ODYSSEY 21 vehicle that will race at the Island X Prix in Sardinia – round four of the 2021 Extreme E Championship.
‘It’s FLUÈRE O’Clock’ will be the non-alcoholic cocktail championed at the Island X Prix this weekend. The cocktail will inspire the bespoke livery of the Andretti United Extreme E vehicle, driven by Catie Munnings and Timmy Hansen.
Andretti United were victorious in the previous round in Greenland, their first victory in the all-electric off-road racing series, and currently sit third in the Teams’ Championship standings.
Extreme E events are chosen to raise awareness of the impact of climate change around the world, with the first three races taking place in Saudi Arabia (Desert X Prix), Senegal (Ocean X Prix) and Greenland (Arctic X Prix).
The Island X Prix will look to highlight the weather conditions in Sardinia, a location which is suffering from rising temperatures, heatwaves and wildfires. The event, Extreme E’s first European race, will take place in the Army Training area at Capo Teulad. A historic area in the south-west of the island, the course provides a hard compact surface that is prone to crack due to the heat of the region.
The ‘It’s FLUÈRE O’Clock’ cocktail mix includes ingredients such as honey water, non-alcoholic sparkling wine and grapefruit juice to create a fiery visual, drawing focus on the conditions in the region, but with a cool taste.
