Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this mixology class:

In two fun-filled hours you can become a confident bartender, creating delicious and gorgeous cocktails, to the delight of your guests. A master mixologist will walk you through how to stock a basic bar and create classic cocktails and some fun variations:

  • Martini (and a Lavender Lemontini)
  • Margarita (and a spicy variation)
  • Old Fashioned (and a mesquite smoked version)

The instructor will demonstrate each cocktail on the menu, giving you the opportunity to taste them all. Each student will be paired with a partner and have the opportunity to make their two favorites from the list. The class includes a segment on making simple syrup from scratch and utilizing stylish garnishes, from standard olives and lemon twists to a few imaginative extras. You take away an e-booklet on the well stocked bar including recipes for cocktails, and a space for you to note your personal preferences.

Notes:

  • Please arrive 15 minutes early to check in.
  • Guests will work in groups of two throughout the class by sharing ingredients and equipment, but we are happy to seat you with your booking party if you are with a bigger group.
  • Outside drinks are not allowed.
  • 21+ only.

Refund Policy

Cancellation or reschedule request has to be made at least 5 business days before the class for groups of less than 6 people and 16 business days for groups of 6 people or more.

For cancellation requests, please contact us at [email protected] in order to receive credits for booking a future class. Tickets are non-refundable.

However, you are always welcome to send someone in your place because we understand things could happen.

In any event where a customer wants to cancel their enrollment and is eligible for a full refund, a 5% processing fee will be deducted from the refund amount.

    The class was great. The teacher was fantastic and gave us a lot of understanding of how to make the drinks. The location was a bit strange and it was hard to really work together in making the drinks.

    I was unable to attend due to an emergency. I tried to reschedule but was under the threshold due to the cancellation policy. The good news, possibly ... seems I may be able to reschedule for another class with a fee of $20. It hasn't been confirmed yet. So, if your offer of $15 for a review is real, then I could apply that $15 toward the rescheduling fee. That would be nice. Please let me know.

    The class was great! The instructor was clearly very knowledgeable and did a wonderful job. The location (i.e., room/space) could have been improved as there was very little room to move around when going up to taste cocktails.

    I found the cocktail class interesting but thought crackers and cheese should have been provided to help with the mixed drinks. I am not a bigger drinks and was a little tipsy leaving the class. The crackers would have eased my stomach. Thanks!
