Private Cocktail Making Class in Nashville

About this Experience

What you'll do:

This is not a boring cocktail demo where you just watch someone shake a drink.

Sips & Trips hosts hands-on cocktail making classes where everyone gets involved. We bring the bar setup, ingredients, and guidance straight to your space — and you and your group learn how to make legit cocktails while having a good time.

Think less “classroom,” more “group activity with drinks.” You’ll shake, sip, laugh, and leave knowing how to make cocktails you’ll actually want to recreate.

What you’ll do

You’ll mix, shake, and build cocktails alongside a professional bartender — with zero pressure and plenty of room to have fun.

We walk your group through a curated cocktail menu, share tips along the way, and keep the energy light so it never feels stiff or awkward. Everyone makes their own drinks, everyone gets to taste, and the vibes stay high.

What’s included

This experience is designed to be fun, interactive, and easy — even if you’ve never made a cocktail before.

  • Custom cocktail menu for your group

Why we love it for your party:

Because it gives your group something to do — not just something to drink.

  • Fun, hands-on group activity

  • Perfect for daytime or early night plans

  • Easy for mixed skill levels

  • Everyone leaves with new cocktail skills
