“We did it off of two things: the blue label as well as the water,” said Chef English. “I’ve always been a big fan of Saratoga. So, we tried to have some fun with the food.”
The highlight of the night was marked when Saratoga Water continued their longtime support for the culinary arts by donating $40,000 to the James Beard Foundation. Kheri Tillman, Chief Marketing Officer of BlueTriton Brands, Inc., the owner of the Saratoga® brand, presented the check to the JBF Vice President of Partnerships and Development, Jaime-Faye Bean.

“Tonight, we celebrate 150 years of amazing water, said Tillman. “Those of you from Saratoga Springs know this origin, but it is from New York, Saratoga Springs, NY. We started in the restaurant industry, gracing the tables of high-end restaurants and hotels. At BlueTriton Brands, we are thrilled to be able to take that amazing water and bring it to consumers across the United States.”
“We started on the table, we started in the restaurants, so for us the culinary arts are very important. I want to say thank you to the James Beard Foundation, which does a lot to support the culinary arts.”
Bean said in her thank you, “Your inspired products are one thing, but the thing I really love about Saratoga Water is you're a company that gives back and that means so much to us at the Foundation. We're just so honored that we've been brought into folds this year with your partnership.”
