Master Gin Tea Cocktails at Home

This is a ClassBento 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:

1. Request your preferred time
2. We'll deliver a ClassBento Box to you - this is a physical DIY craft kit containing the materials you'll need. Shipping in the UK is free, and you'll get your box delivered in time for your class. We ship nationwide.
3. 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.

Are you a tea-fanatic who also enjoys a tempting gin cocktail from time to time? It's time to treat your tastebuds to a gin tea cocktail!

Master the art of tea cocktails with this indulgent virtual class from well-loved Scottish leaf tea experts, eteaket Tea.

Learn some new skills and spice up your night as eteaket's Founder, Erica, teaches you how to make cocktails at home using the delectable Isle of Harris Gin Tea. Shut out the outside world and have some fun learning new skills and recipes - perfect for those looking for fun things to do at home whilst in lockdown.

Erica will introduce you to the teas and the stories behind them and together you will muddle, stir and sip some intoxicating tea-creations. She will explain to you all about the art of cold brewing tea and other tea beverages like tea lattes so you'll be able to create your own concoctions in the future.

Don't worry if you're a DIY cocktails beginner, this online class is designed for mixology newbies (and even people who struggle to make a good cup of tea). By the end of the class, you'll understand the fundamentals of using tea as a base for all sorts of beverages including tea cocktails and you'll have perfected three awesome recipes.

We'll also provide you with mocktail options. No alcohol or mixers are included in the delivery but you'll find a simple shopping list below. Please ensure you have these ingredients (or alternatives) to hand so we can make together. The joy is in being creative and using what you have at home!
