Introduction
There’s a cocktail for everyone, from Bond’s favourite vodka martini, to the blue lagoon from your local spoons. You can experience having the mysterious charm of a cocktail barman, without the pesky customers! Add some flair into your team with our cocktail masterclass and team event.
Event Outline
- Our team will arrive some time before to get our pop-up bar stations for each team set and ready, with all the equipment you need to get your team muddled!Upon entry your team will receive a cocktail or mocktail already prepared by our expert barman. They will be split into teams (unless it is done as a class) and they will be given a brief introduction by our host. There will be a demonstration covering cocktail and mixology basics and a chance for guests to try out some flair moves!The challenges will be set, and your teams will have to impress our judge with a group flair routine, the layering of drinks, and finally a “mystery mix” will be introduced. Guests will have to impress our judge with their new-found cocktail knowledge and create a signature cocktail they get to name themselves.Once our judge is suitably tipsy they will decide which team gets the medals, and we will set time for them to have a photo opportunity if they desire.
