5 Ways Online Cocktail Classes Can Up Your Mixology Game


By ClassBento Team

If you're bored of ordering the same cocktails on a night out or finishing an evening with a cheap glass of wine, we've got a list of exciting online cocktail classes, guaranteed to freshen up your palate. You'll also get to learn a fun and useful new skill. So get ready to mix things up in these unique online workshops!

Whatever your preference for beverages, we've got you covered. From rich smoky flavors of whiskey cocktails to the light fruity fragrance of tropical drinks from around the world, there's something for everyone. Each one of our interactive virtual cocktail-making classes is hosted by a friendly professional mixologist bursting with fun facts and expert tips of the trade that will soon have you writing your own creative recipes in no time. 

Whichever class you sign up to join, you will receive a box packed with cocktail goodies, delivered directly to your door in time for the workshop, containing all you'll need to shake up a storm! From jiggers and shakers to garnishes, spoons, and syrups – and, of course, a range of must-have alcohols and spirits – you will find everything you need in it to start on your home bartending journey. 

Never again will you have to sip your way through another dispiriting Margarita. From now on, you will be able to fix up fabulous new cocktails with flair and flavor. Your friends will soon be asking you to take on mixology duties at their next party! 

Still not convinced of the transformative magic of cocktail making? Read on to find out five ways online cocktail classes can add some mixology marvels to your life.  

1. Mix it up Mexican style

Do you harbor a secret hankering to savor the sultry sensations of mezcal and Tequila? Our dedicated Mezcal and Tequila cocktail making class, provided courtesy of Cocktail Architect, will not only instruct you in the fine art of making cocktails with these seductive spirits but will also give you a crash course on the long and illustrious history of these drinks and how they were first created.

There will be tips, trivia, tasting, and so much more during the course of this fun and engaging virtual workshop.

Worried that your shaking skills may not be up to it? No need to panic. No prior cocktail-making experience is necessary for this class, and when you sign up you will receive a perfectly prepared box of DIY cocktail making components, including artisan syrups, garnishes, and a 250ml Boston Shaker. 

2. Tap into your taste for trivia

Want to learn more about cocktails as you mix away? Our DIY cocktails and Trivia class is the perfect solution. Sign up with a few of your friends and brace yourselves for a uniquely enjoyable indoor activity that will soon have you swapping fun facts and fresh flavors. This hour-long online cocktail making class is led by two master mixologists and offers two different fun formats for you to choose from. 

The first involves mixing up three delicious cocktails and enjoying plenty of cocktail trivia along the way, while the second format features both of those elements, with the addition of a thrilling interactive contest to tap into your competitive spirit. These beginner-friendly sessions are customizable, so you can bring along a bottle of your favorite spirit and learn how to weave it into liquid wonder! 

3. Boost your knowledge with a batch of cocktail bitters

For those of you who aren’t complete mixology novices, our class on prepping cocktail bitters at home is sure to be a valuable addition to your cocktail-creating arsenal. You will be able to prepare the perfect bitters to use in all your best-loved cocktail creations. This is a guaranteed way to impress your friends when you host your next party. 

This virtual mixology session is led by a knowledgeable professional who will walk you through every step of preparing delicious bitters infused with a range of piquant spices and botanicals. Along the way, you will be taught how to use these bitters in the best way possible to maximize the potential of their flavor and bring your cocktails to sparkling life. 

There is always room to learn and ways to advance your skills. Learning a way to create your own cocktail ingredients is a great opportunity to learn more about the craft, history, and ingredients. You won't regret adding this skill to your tool belt. Learning new things is beneficial to your mental wellbeing, and it's even better when you learn something useful. Whether you're a bartender by trade or just an at-home cocktail enthusiast, you'll benefit from this unique workshop.

Our live streaming lessons offer the perfect opportunity to pick up some new skills while hanging with your friends near and far. Or treat your colleagues to a team building experience unlike another other with an absinthe cocktail making class. You'll learn all about this mysterious and often misunderstood spirit with the Boozy Bartender. 

Anyone who loves craft cocktails will appreciate this one-of-a-kind virtual experience. You'll get cocktail kits with premeasured mixers and delicious garnishes to make a refreshing frappé. Socialize as you learn the fascinating history of this green-tinted drink. 

5. Host your own beer or wine tasting evening

The last few months have seen us cooped up inside our own homes, day after day, week after week, without much chance to socialize or celebrate special occasions with our nearest and dearest. It's time to shake things up and add some sophistication to your selection of fun things to do at home, by signing up for one of our Wine or Beer Tasting at Home workshops.

These live streaming sessions are perfect for groups of between 10 and 50 and provide you and your friends or family with a fun-filled virtual activity that will impart new knowledge while allowing you to sample some delicious vintages or ales, depending on which class you have chosen. Not only will you get to savor different kinds of beer or wine, but you can also opt for some mouthwatering add-ons, such as chocolate truffles and artisan cheeses, to make your tasting evening a true feast for the senses.
