How it works
This is a virtual Live/Box class! From the comfort of your home, share an artisan experience with your friends, family or colleagues, or enjoy with like-minded others. Our Live/Box classes have been featured on The Guardian, TimeOut, GQ, Daily Mirror, The Metro, and more. Here's how it works:
- Book or Request your preferred time
- The Bartender (liquor license number: 1307148) will deliver a Box to you - this is a physical DIY cocktail kit containing the materials you'll need. Shipping is free, and you'll get your box delivered in time for your class. We ship nationwide. International shipping is also available for private groups, please enquire for pricing details. You must be 18+ years old to purchase this Box.
- Enjoy the online class. After booking, you'll receive a link to a Zoom meeting. At the time of the class, use that link to join. During the class, you can easily ask questions and get immediate responses. Zoom is free and easy to use, on any device. You're in control of your privacy - you can mute yourself and hide your webcam if and when you prefer.
What you'll do
Welcome to The Bar From Afar, the only virtual bar set up by the very best bartenders in the UK, if not the world.
Learn how to make three cocktails at home whilst having fun. Your expert bartender and teacher will help you mix your drinks and give you some great home hacks to mixing great drinks whilst the pubs are closed. Everything you need will be sent to you in your cocktail kit (see below).
This live online class is perfect for a group of friends celebrating a special event, or staff looking for fun virtual team building activities. Boxes can be shipped all over the UK and much much further afield.
Want to share this amazing cocktail kit with a family member, housemate, or an imaginary friend? Our couples boxes are an extra £35, giving your loved one a £5 discount to join in on the experience.
Whether you need fun things to do in Edinburgh, Manchester or Bristol, no matter where you all are in the UK, we can deliver a fun and tasty workshop.
Popular Pours menu:
- Garden of Eden
- Raspberry Cosmo
- Porn Star Martini
Mocktail options are available upon request too, we use free-spirits such as Lyre's and Caleno. Due to the prices of these, the box cost is the same.
Please note: Public classes require a minimum number of students to run. In the unlikely event that we don't get this number of students, we'll cancel the class; in this case we'll inform and reschedule/refund you, so please watch your email prior to the class

Your teacher
Our team of bartenders have been mixing cocktails professionally since 2003, initially mixing drinks in people's homes and gardens, entertaining on a small and entertaining scale. Everything exploded with the launch of our website in 2005 and since then we've been shaking our stuff and teaching cocktail enthusiasts how to make cocktails, from small groups of hen parties, all the way through to entertaining corporate away-days of over 200 delegates.
Since 2020, we've taken our offering online, which, paired with our penchant for tech and our love of teaching, we created The Bar From Afar, a place for groups to get together and have fun with drinks as a group again, whether it be for a work's Christmas party, or a birthday of close friends desperate to see each other and have a bit of a boogie at the same time.
With us, you won't just be taught how to make some drinks, and we won't drone on about the intricacies of gin variants or the differences between Russian and Polish vodkas. Instead, we want to have fun with you - we miss making drinks face to face! We want to bring the fun of visiting a bar direct to you at home.

Lewis was fantastic. Great personality and loads of energy. The bar set up was very cool, camera placement made it really easy to follow and the cocktails were delicious. Can’t wait to do it again.

Brilliant evening. Managed to keep everyone engaged and entertained throughout the evening. Would certainly recommend.
Niamh Foster • Feb 2021
Great level of knowledge and fun. Great selection of drinks made in the class also
Jayne Nethersole • Feb 2021
Our bartender Lewis was very knowledgeable on the cocktails we made and any others we asked about - history, trivia, how to make them. Great evening with friends and strangers, almost as good as a night in the pub!
Sarah Atkinson • Feb 2021
Lewis was great! Knowledgeable, fun and engaging. A good evening and nice to see other people!
Jemma Phillips • Feb 2021
Really enjoyed the class. The whole pub experience was very clever and Liam was really inclusive. I thought the box of items was perfect no need to buy anything additional (except maybe a martini glass!). I would definitely book this again and will look into doing a private class as well. Really enjoyed it!
Jude Neill • Feb 2021
Lewis was awesome - sociable and really helpful! We had been looking forward to this class so much and it really was worth the dollar. We enjoyed ourselves so much and got the wee buzz we have missed!
Thanks so so much, Lewis!
