Carlos Alcaraz, there's a new star emerging at the U.S. Open.

Since 2006, the signature cocktail of New York's Grand Slam event has been The Honey Deuce, which attendees have used to quench their thirst during the tournament.

The drink, named after the tennis score "deuce" and the sweetness of honeydew, contains Grey Goose vodka, lemonade, raspberry liqueur, and is topped with three honeydew balls that resemble mini tennis balls.

The cost of the cocktail has increased to $23 from $22 the previous year. This is the sixth price increase since 2012, when it was priced at $14, according to Morning Brew.
