Want to learn how to make delicious cocktails? Take Mixology 101!

In this Mixology 101 virtual workshop, you’ll learn farm-to-bar mixology, using simple and easy to find ingredients, like fresh herbs and fruits. We’ll also learn about flavor profiles that are readily available at your local grocery store.

Our mixologist will also teach basic techniques (like how to cut garnishes properly) and go over tools of the trade, including the strainer, shaker, muddler, and jigger.

In this course, you can sit and watch or follow along and make a cocktail. And most importantly, it’s interactive! You can ask questions and be sure you’re crafting the perfect cocktail.

While it is not required, you may purchase a Mixology Kit, which includes a shaker, strainer, muddler, jigger, and pour spouts. The registration deadline is August 14th, 2020 and only 15 seats are available.
