Each person had a card to uncover and it really was an ice breaker. Then they made their own cocktails. The group did this before going out to dinner.

Experience the art of cocktail making in the heart of Wine Country. Our mixology workshop is designed for travelers seeking connection, creativity, and a taste of something uniquely crafted. Perfect for boutique hotels, resorts, inns, estates, and private gatherings throughout Napa and Sonoma — and we’re delighted to travel beyond Wine Country upon request.
Guests will create two craft cocktails while learning the foundations of mixology: flavor balance, shaking and stirring techniques, proper dilution, and beautiful seasonal garnishing. This is a hands-on class — not just a demonstration — where each participant gets to mix, taste, and refine their own drinks.
We provide all tools, glassware, syrups, mixers, and fresh, local ingredients, so guests simply arrive ready to sip, learn, and enjoy. Whether it’s a retreat, special celebration, friends' weekend, or guest experience add-on, this is an engaging, memorable activity that carries the relaxed elegance of Wine Country into every pour.
What you'll get
We provide all tools, fresh mixers, syrups, garnishes, ice, linens, and glassware setup, including:
  • Shakers, jiggers, strainers, bar spoons & tools
  • Seasonal garnishes & fresh citrus
  • Ice, ice buckets, and napkins
  • Glassware (or we can utilize your in-house glassware)
The hosting resort/restaurant/inn provides the spirits to align with their bar program, compliance, and licensing. We seamlessly coordinate beforehand to ensure the cocktails pair with your property’s style, inventory, and guest experience.

  • 5/5 from Diane W. Cowlin, attended Sep 2026: We had a wonderful time at our Cocktail Crafting Workshop with California Tastings! The California Tastings team came to us at our (remote!) location with everything we needed to create cocktails and mocktails during our annual company retreat. It was delicious, educational, relaxing and a lot of fun. Everyone enjoyed both creating and consuming their artistic creations. Thanks for creating a memorable experience, Nilu & California Tastings!

As a trained Sommelier, I like to take away any and all intimidation when it comes to all our Experiences! I have 10 years of Experience in the Wine industry working in Napa & Sonoma Counties. I always loved making Cocktails, but got more into it as I was studying for my Certified Sommelier exam. At that point I took a Bartending class in San Francisco which made me fall in love with all things Mixology.
My goal is to turn wine newbies into confident connoisseurs, at home cocktail makers into mixologists, showcase how wonderful Sake is and allow you to use your senses to pick up wine aromas. As we get into the Holidays, please do ask us about Gift cards for your friends and family. So what are you waiting for? Get your favorite people together and pick one of our custom Experiences Workshops. If you are staying at a Resort, we will reach out for you to make sure they are comfortable with us hosting the Experiences there. If they do not allow it we will ask one of our partners to use their locations.
