The Game and Wildlife Conservation Trust is holding the event, as a charity evening, where attendees will have the chance to to taste and judge for themselves.
Regional organiser for Scotland Rory Donaldson said: ‘Sloe gin? Raspberry vodka? Cherry brandy? If you have your own concoction, why not submit it for consideration?
‘If not, why not come along with your friends for a fun-filled night as we sample, savour and announce the winning tipples.’
Those who wish to enter should let the GWCT know by Monday, 22 October.
Rory continued: ‘You will then be required to submit a one litre bottle of your alcohol-based hip flask tipple, along with its recipe, by Sunday 4 November.
‘Tasting and judging will take place at the event on Thursday 8 November 2018, with the winner(s) being announced and prizes awarded on the night.’
The event is taking place at Hampden & Co, at 9 Charlotte Square, Edinburgh, starting at 6pm. Tickets are priced ÂŁ20 each. There will also be further raffles and competitions on the evening.
The winning recipe(s) will be featured in Scottish Field.
