The Art of the Cocktail

Learn to make a perfect cocktail. We’ll start with a brief history of how cocktails evolved over time. Get familiar with different spirits, mixers, flavor profiles, and essential bar tools and glassware. Master essential mixing techniques like shaking, stirring, muddling, and balancing sweet, sour, bitter, and savory elements to create a perfectly balanced drink. After dividing into small teams to try our hand at mixing, we’ll toast our handiwork with a group tasting. These classes are a combination of demonstration and hands-on learning. Classic Cocktails with a Twist: Shake up your skills by mastering the timeless classics such as the Martini, Mojito, Manhattan, and Negroni. Build a solid foundation with a twist of creativity. Holiday Cocktails: Get into the holiday spirit (literally!) with a festive lineup of seasonal drinks such as the White Chocolate Martini, New Year’s Sparkler, Christmas on the Cape Mule, Chai Old Fashioned, and Eggnog. Shake, stir, and sip your way through this merry menu.
