4 Best Cocktail Making Kits for Your Home Bar

4 Best Cocktail Making Kits for Your Home Bar


By Annie Symonds

Our guide to the best virtual cocktail making classes is here to inspire you. It's time to literally mix things up and get your home bar sorted so it's ready to help you de-stress at the end of a busy week. If you’re hosting a party, then you can’t go wrong with learning how to make impressive cocktails at home everyone will love!

Most of us only drink cocktails for a special occasion, purely because they are just too expensive. You might be used to ordering the same pint or vino when you go out, but where’s the joy in that when it’s the same drink over and over again. Instead, you could learn how to make easy cocktails at home in no time. It's so much fun and much cheaper than a night out!

Even if you’re looking for fun things to do at home and you’re bored of just sitting in front of the TV, then you can’t go wrong with a virtual cocktail making class. Because it’s an online class, you’ll be able to invite your friends and family no matter where they are based in Britain. Plus, if you’re looking for things for couples to do at home, then a cocktail making class could be the perfect way to create some fun memories with our indoors activities.  

There’s so many DIY cocktail making kits to choose from, so we’re here to inspire you with some of our most popular classes online. We know everyone has a particular taste, so you can choose specific types of alcohol cocktail making classes if you wish. 

1. For the vodka lovers

Vodka is one of the most popular spirits to drink in Britain, but if you’re bored of ordering a vodka and coke when you go out, you could learn there’s much more to this alcoholic spirit than you once thought. 

If you’ve ever wanted to learn how to make a vodka colada, espresso martini or a caprioska, you can do so with the right tools and ingredients. Whilst it might sound complicated, our hugely popular vodka cocktail making classes will guide you into becoming a cocktail connoisseur. 

As you’ll learn how to make four cocktails, you can be the judge of which one you prefer the most. When you’ve mastered the art of vodka cocktail making at home, you could try one of our other popular online cocktail making classes.

2. For the gin lovers

Gin is definitely one of those drinks you either love or hate. But it turns out, gin is more popular than ever in Britain! Whether you’re looking for things to do at home or looking to impress friends and family with your cocktail making skills, you can swap a boring gin and soda for either a tom collins, a south side, a Tahitian spritz or the real gin and tonic. 

In this at home cocktail making class, you’ll learn how to make four gin cocktails, which is the perfect number to ask for requests when entertaining. As you’ll learn how to make gin cocktails, just imagine those summer gin parties you could hold at home. Make your own bar and you’ll learn how to shake, stir and muddle your very own cocktails! 

3. For the rum lovers

Whether it’s raining outside or you’re looking for indoor activities, let us bring the summer holidays to you, no matter what time of year it is! Don’t think you can only drink pina Coladas when you’re sat on the beach because our cocktail making experts will teach you everything you need to know about making this popular cocktail. Plus, you’ll learn how to make mojitos, strawberry daiquiris and even an espresso martini in the comfort of your own home.

So swap your mulled wine for a mojito this winter and dream about that next summer holiday you’ve always wanted to go on!

4. Design your own cocktail making class

If you’d prefer to join a virtual cocktail making class which is a bit different, then you can’t go wrong with designing your very own cocktails! In an online mixology class, you’ll learn how to make various cocktails, as well as your very own creation. Our cocktail expert will teach you everything you need to know about how to mix flavours before you’ll have the opportunity to experiment for yourself. Just imagine the fun you’ll have when you design the best cocktail in Britain! Your friends and family will all want you making their drinks when they come round to your house next time! 

If you’re wondering how our at home cocktail making classes work, we’ll send you a beautiful craft box lovingly made by our British expert teachers and makers to your front door. Inside you’ll find your DIY cocktail making kit which will include all of the tools to shake and make your cocktails. You will be sent a shopping list to buy simple ingredients.

Once you’ve set up your homemade bar, you simply need to log on to Zoom where you’ll find like-minded students and a British cocktail making expert ready to teach you all of the tips and tricks of creating a masterpiece. You’ll be hosting cocktail making parties in no time!

Our virtual cocktail making classes are perfect for anyone looking for indoors activities, online hens parties, at home birthday parties and even corporate online team building activities. If you’re currently looking for things to do in lockdown, you’ll have so much fun with our DIY cocktail making kits! For more ideas on the best cocktails to make from the comfort of your pad, check out our blog on some amazing easy cocktails to make at home.
