Fun Cocktail classes in Oakland (Bay Area)
Cocktail making for beginners
If you’ve ever wondered how to make a mojito like the best bars in Oakland, a cocktail making workshop is for you. Learning to mix your own delicious drinks is an easy and fun way to get involved in the local creative community while learning nifty bartending skills you can use to bring a wow factor to any dinner party. Plus, nothing tastes better than a perfect cocktail you’ve mixed yourself - it’s the ideal treat to welcome the weekend.
It doesn’t matter if you’re a seasoned cocktail connoisseur or your experience extends to pre-mixed cans of pina colada from the grocery store - our mixology classes in Oakland are designed for all skill levels, so everyone in your party will be able to get mixing right away. They also make fantastic gift ideas for couples or even unique anniversary gifts - why simply go out for cocktails when you can make them yourselves?
Whether you’re here for a workplace team-building event with a difference, classy hen’s party ideas or just to catch up with the gang over some drinks, your warm and knowledgeable cocktail expert will guide you through some tasty and easy cocktails to make to get your taste buds tingling!
Not a big drinker? Not a problem! Many of our classes also offer options for anyone who’s trying to keep alcohol free, with some of the best mocktail recipes and ingredients on hand to make sure no one misses out on the fun - ideal if you need to stay fresh the next morning!
What to expect at Oakland mixology classes
You’ll be greeted at your master mixologist’s venue the best way possible - with one of their expertly crafted cocktails. They’ll give you a quick run-down of the fun cocktails you’ll be putting together, alongside some tantalizing tidbits about the interesting history of each drink.
After some professional demonstrations to help you familiarize yourself with all the provided ingredients and equipment, it’ll be time to let your imagination run wild as you start to conjure up your own cocktail! Your warm and welcoming host will be on hand to dispense insider advice, handy hints and - best of all - more cocktails to help keep the creative juices flowing. From mixing and muddling to pouring and finishing with a flourish, you’ll work at your own pace to create your sippable sensation!
Once all the shaking and stirring is over, your Oakland cocktail making class will conclude with the opportunity to relax and unwind with your fellow budding bartenders. You’ll share the fruits of your labors with some spirited conversation in a laid back environment. Good drinks and great company - what could be a better way to spend an evening?
Cocktail making is great for your wellbeing
The fun doesn’t stop after your Oakland mixology masterclass, either. Aside from being an impressive skill that lets you rustle up remarkable refreshments at a moment’s notice, you may be surprised at the benefits of cocktail making for your mood. Following the recipe, measuring out your ingredients precisely, and using your newfound skills to blend them to perfection - all of these things allow you mini meditative moments to switch off from your responsibilities for a while. All that vigorous shaking and stirring is also incredibly satisfying, giving you a quick and easy boost to your mood when it all comes together. Try one of our team building cocktail classes to reward your colleagues for a great year or just to get together outside of work and have fun.
Then, of course, there’s the drinking! Of course, your drinks taste great, but if you take some time to slow down and savor your creation, it’s elevated to a full sensory experience. From the frosty appeal of a perfect margarita to the clink of the ice after you make an old-fashioned, taking a moment to enjoy your evening cocktail not only helps you unwind after a long day, but puts you in a more meditative mindset, letting you enjoy everything just that little bit more.
