At the beginning of your private cocktail experience, an award winning Mixologist will talk to you about the tricks of the trade and how to create a killer cocktail. This is then followed by a brief history of cocktails which is thrown in for good measure.

Hen parties or Stag parties will be split into two teams, which will help break the ice and bring on a bit of friendly banter and competition. Breaking the ice on the cocktail experience will be eased with the help of a favoured tipple and a demonstration to learn and make the creations at home. These will include classics such as the Cosmopolitan, Margarita and Martini. While the teams sample the finished creations, your Mixologist will discuss their origins.

It is finally time for the cocktail experience to get your mitts on a Boston tin and get shaking those classics you have just been sampling. There is no point in sitting back, we want you to get stuck in!

As if you haven’t already had enough cocktails, the cocktail experience will have you mingling with your hen party or stag party as the Mixologist makes you yet another favourite to sample!

This is the time when you put all that you have learnt on the cocktail experience to the test. In teams hen parties or stag parties will be mixing three drinks (one at a time!). These fabulous creations will be judged on appearance, taste (of course) and the time it takes to make them.

After all the creations sampled during the cocktail experience, each team will have a quiz to complete to see if you can remember what you did at the beginning of the session.

If at the end of the cocktail experience, there is anything left to shake, hen parties and stag parties can finally sit down and have a cocktail while the Mixologist announces the winners and crowns them ‘The Ultimate Shakers’!
