About this Experience

What you'll do:

A professional mixologist comes to your home, office, or event space and turns it into a working cocktail bar for the night. You and your group spend 90 minutes learning to build classic and signature cocktails from scratch, with real techniques and real drinks from start to finish.

  • Hands-on mixing: your mixologist walks everyone through each cocktail step by step, so guests are shaking and stirring alongside the pro, not just watching.

  • Classic and signature cocktails: the class covers a mix of recognizable standards and original recipes, so the lineup feels polished and personally curated.

  • Full setup included: the team arrives with all tools, supplies, and equipment, sets up in your space, and breaks everything down before they leave.

  • Pro instruction: your host teaches proper technique, including how to balance flavors and build drinks with confidence, so guests leave knowing more than they walked in with.

  • Flexible venue: the class works in a living room, backyard, rented event space, or office, so your group is not locked into someone else's location or schedule.

This is a private cocktail class, which means your group has the room, the mixologist, and the full experience to yourselves for the entire session.

Why we love it for your group:

  • Comes to you: no coordinating Ubers or navigating an unfamiliar venue, because your cocktail class runs wherever your group already is.

  • Group-friendly format: the class is built for a crowd, so everyone participates at the same time and nobody is left standing around.

  • Built-in entertainment: learning to make cocktails together gives the group something to focus on beyond small talk, which makes the energy in the room noticeably better.

  • Customizable feel: because it happens in your space, the vibe reflects your group rather than the decor of a rented venue.

  • Covers the full evening: at 90 minutes, the class is long enough to feel like the main event rather than a quick add-on to your schedule.
