Behind every great cocktail is someone who was once exactly where you are -- excited, a little curious, and maybe wondering if they'll accidentally shake when they should stir! In this two-hour cocktail making class in San Diego, a master mixologist guides you through everything you need to feel at home behind the bar. You'll learn how to stock a basic bar, master the foundational techniques of shaking and stirring, and walk away with real, repeatable skills -- no bartending experience required.
The class takes you through three stunning cocktails: the tropical Golden Hour, the bright and refreshing Empress Garden, and the rich, slightly moody Satine. Your instructor demonstrates each one while you taste along the way, so you know exactly what you're working toward. Then, paired with a partner, you'll get hands-on time making your two favorites from the menu.
Whether you're looking for fun date ideas in San Diego, a fresh take on things to do with friends, or you simply want to finally learn how to make cocktails that actually impress people -- this mixology class delivers. It's warm, welcoming, and designed for everyone. The only thing you need to bring is yourself and a little enthusiasm for a good drink.
