  • 5/5 from Aida Abou-Zamzam, attended Sep 2026: Rebecca's cocktail class was such a fun treat! My fiance and I used the class to design some signature drinks for our upcoming wedding, and Rebecca was so easy to work with. She was proactive in talking to us ahead of time to find out our likes and dislikes when it came to drinks, and she came prepared to the class with three delicious recipes. We've already made the drinks multiple times in the week since our class, and our friends have loved them all! It was such a fun and special date night to celebrate our anniversary :)
  • 5/5 from Esther Allen, attended Oct 2025: Rebecca was fantastic. Bright, funny and fresh. She made the class amazing. She was informative and helpful. Will recommend.
  • 5/5 from Natalie Gomez, attended Jun 2025: Rebecca lead a team bonding mixology class for us and it was a BLAST! My team members loved learning a fun (and delicious) skill. :) THANK YOU Rebecca, we will be seeing again you in the near future.
  • 5/5 from Megan Myers, attended Dec 2024: We are not new to cocktail making and still felt the class was very informative. Rebecca was very friendly and knowledgeable! We would definitely take another class with her!
  • 5/5 from Linda Conway, attended Dec 2024: What a great experience! Rebecca really knows her stuff, and gave us great insight in how to customize our cocktails. We're looking forward to wowing friends and family with our bar skills. The cocktails were delicious!

  • 5/5 from Sammy Braxton-Haney, attended Sep 2024: Gregarious, funny, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Highly recommended and great for small or large groups. Tops!
  • 5/5 from Malinda Ripley, attended Aug 2024: What an amazing experience! Rebecca was fun, knowledgeable and brought a twist to each drink we made! My fiancĂ© and I were picking drinks for our wedding, which made the evening extra special! Rebecca had so many tips for our special day outside of the drinks made.
  • 5/5 from Marc Stevens, Brand & Communications Manager, attended May 2024: Rebecca and her team were extremely knowledgeable, timely, and, most importantly, FUN! From the in-depth breakdown of the science behind mixology to the custom-made cardamom simple syrup and habanero extracts, this was not your average mixology class. Rebecca accommodated our group, which included non-alcohol-drinking individuals, by making special flavorful options and virgin liqueurs for these attendees so they did not feel left out.
  • 5/5 from Niraek Jain-Sharma, attended Feb 2024: Rebecca's class was amazing. We learned so much about how to make different cocktails and the environment was very relaxed and friendly. She is very patient in explaining different concepts in the cocktail making process. We can't wait to use everything we learned!
  • 5/5 from Sam Rosekrans, attended Dec 2023: Rebecca was amazing - the best energy and so creative! The drinks were out of this world. Highly recommend!
  • 5/5 from Kristin Bartlow, attended Dec 2023: Rebecca is wonderful, all around! She did an impressive job of providing the perfect amount of education, while making it so much fun. From start to finish she exceeded all expectations - prompt email responses, flexible & helpful in creating the menu, bar setup on a fairly small table, engagement with our group and follow-up afterwards with some helpful tips to share with our group. I look forward to working with her again in the future!
  • 5/5 from Edmund Wong, attended Sep 2023: Rebecca was very energetic, knowledgable, and fun! The whole group had a great time and learned a lot about making cocktails. It was still a great topic in discussion the following day!
  • 5/5 from Ryan Geraghty, attended Aug 2023: Rebecca is a fountain of knowledge and so easy to talk to. It felt like having one of your closest friends hosting a cocktail making class, including knowing your flavor preferences. She was absolutely fantastic and I cannot recommend her enough.
  • 5/5 from Sam Chun, attended Jul 2023: Rebecca was a fantastic and engaging teacher for my mom’s surprise birthday cocktail making class. She was so knowledgeable, patient and most importantly so fun with my family and I heard nothing but great things from all of them on how fun the day and memorable the day was thanks to her!
  • 5/5 from Carly Madison, attended Jul 2023: Our large group had a great time with Rebecca! She was great at explaining all the processes and history of the cocktail making. The presentation was amazing and the drinks we made were delicious. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to have a good time
  • 5/5 from Ciandra Barber, attended Mar 2023: This experience was a an amazing gift from my husband. Rebecca listened to my requests and crafted a learning experience I will not soon forget. The personalized touches were thoughtful and creative. I am so grateful you have found your niche in the industry and are sharing your talents with the world. Salud!
  • 5/5 from Dale Viger, attended Jan 2023: My friends and I had a wonderful with Rebecca. She was extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. Everyone enjoyed talking and learning from her. The best part is she customized our drink menu to our likes and dislikes so every drink we tried (all 3 were brand new to us) were fantastic! She asked us about any techniques we wanted to learn (i.e., smoking a drink or making a foam) and incorporated that into the evening. We would HIGHLY recommend any cocktail class with Rebecca and hope to do it again ourselves.
  • 5/5 from Kyrene Wang, attended Jul 2022: Rebecca was an amazing teacher. We asked her to come for a company social event, and she was very professional and well prepared. She brought everything we needed and she and her assistant Caleb set up. They also generously waited 15 minutes+ for a group that was running late to the event. During the mixology class, Rebecca was extremely knowledgeable and explained even the history of certain cocktails. She asked members of the class for their favorite cocktails and discussed how they are made and why you might add one thing versus another. She was very generous with her knowledge, detailing her recipe for syrups and even saying we could email her after the event for more recipes and information. I highly recommend hiring Rebecca for a social mixer or any other event. Also, she was very non-alcoholic friendly, as I don't drink, and she brought a number of non-alcoholic spirits and mixers to try.
  • 5/5 from Nishat Hossain, attended Jun 2022: This was an amazing class and I would highly recommend to anyone doing team building or a fun group bonding activity! Rebecca was so excellent throughout the entire process. The cocktails were delicious and the instruction was so informative. We got completely engrossed in the history of cocktail making. I would definitely do this again given the opportunity!
  • 5/5 from Leandro Oto, attended Jun 2022: We worked with Rebecca for a team event at Airbnb and we had a lot of fun. Rebecca's energy and passion for misology is unique and she is a great storyteller, hard to find someone like her. Everything was really high quality and we were able to accommodate drinks with and without alcohol. We will definitely consider her for future events!
  • 5/5 from Shawna Ryan, attended Jun 2022: OMG, Rebecca was so organized, so creative, and so fun! I hired her to do a class for my partner's birthday, and I got a text the next day from a guest that I had set the bar high for future parties. I agree. I highly highly recommend!

Some call me a cocktail evangelist
I am passionate about learning, educating and throwing a darn good party. Since 2014, I've taught cocktail history and disciplines to bar staffs and to humans curious about cocktails. I've crafted cocktail menus for restaurants and conducted cocktail events for private in-home events, weddings, gala's and office happy hours. Recently, I was the bar manager at San Francisco’s Bon Voyage!, and previously worked at Maialino, Barbuto and Dante at Genuine in New York City.
In 2020 I started my full service cocktail experience company and have since conducted over 500 cocktail events virtually and in-person.
