If a busy week or long day at the office has left you low on energy and high on stress, a cocktail-making experience could be just what you need to recharge your batteries. Our mixology classes are a brilliant opportunity to try something new and engage all five senses. Savour the flavours of each ingredient, the sounds of the shaker, and the scent of freshly squeezed lime — plus plenty of laughter as you test your newfound shaking skills! Enjoy the opportunity to unwind and switch off in a calm and relaxing environment as you learn how to make cocktails and discover a new hobby with the help of a master mixologist.

Mixing up your daily routine with a London cocktail class will also help you escape the daily grind and embrace your creative side as you craft your signature cocktail from a wide selection of spirits and mixers. You’ll positively impact your mental and physical well-being and improve your confidence through learning something new — whilst having lots of fun with friends in the process! 

On the hunt for fun things to do in London with a group? Cocktail making will help you socialise with others and get to know one another better — so why not invite your friends for a creative catchup or suggest a cocktail masterclass to your colleagues instead of the usual get-together for your next team building activity? 

A cocktail masterclass makes the perfect experience gift

We all have that one person who deserves the world but already has everything they need or refuses to accept a present. What better way to surprise your loved one than with something they can experience and enjoy, rather than another set of smellies (or the dreaded pair of socks)? 

If you’re searching for a unique experience gift, treat them to a fun, hands-on activity with our London cocktail classes. Your loved ones can learn fantastic mixology methods that they can use to take their cocktail making skills to the next level at home. They can also share the experience with their friends and family for extra-special quality time they’ll remember forever. With a cocktail gift experience, you'll give them the gift of new skills learned and the opportunity to make memories to last a lifetime. 

Searching for thoughtful and unique gifts for her to mark a special occasion? Or maybe you're planning a birthday party or baby shower celebration? Double up and choose a mixology class in London as the gift and the event itself. Avoid the hustle and bustle of the city’s bars, swapping a night out in a cramped club for a private cocktail making party at our fully-stocked mixology studio. You won’t need to shout over the music to have a conversation, and there's no need to wait for service when you're creating delicious cocktails from scratch.
