Why You'll Love Cocktail Making Classes at Home

Why You'll Love Cocktail Making Classes at Home


By Laura Maskery

Looking for fun things to do at home or in London? Ready to shake up your Friday nights? We think you’ll love our virtual mixology workshops and London cocktail making classes - they're a really relaxing and creative activity which will help you carve out some time to unwind.

Choose a cocktail making kit, lovingly packed just for you by expert mixologists from around the UK - a perfect night in all boxed up and delivered to your door! You can pick between delicious alcoholic cocktails or heavenly mocktails - whatever’s best for you. Choose one of our DIY kits to enjoy a DIY cocktails party at your leisure, or opt for a cocktails kit with an accompanying live-streamed class and we'll Zoom a superstar cocktail-making pro into your home to show you how it's done. Take part with your household, or get together online with friends and loved ones remotely - enjoying a virtual class or activity is a lovely way to connect with others when you can’t be together in person!

Date nights - sorted!

If you’re wondering what to do for your next date night with your loved one, virtual cocktail making classes could be the perfect option. The stresses and worries of recent times have left us all feeling a bit (or a lot) drained and most of us have spent a ton of time at home in the last year or so. You might have actually had more time with your partner than ever, but it’s about quality not quantity and it’s important to make sure that you’re still getting undistracted and relaxing time together, as well as just the everyday stuff. Even if you’re in lockdown right now, date nights can still be a thing! 

Choose to do a cocktail making kit at home together, put your phones away for a while and shake up some delicious drinks to enjoy as a pair. You’ll get an awesome cocktail set sent to your door from a fabulous mixology expert - drinks, shakers and instructions included! You can choose to make your DIY cocktails by yourselves, or you can join a super fun party online with a live streaming virtual cocktail making class and a great teacher who can show you just how it’s done. 

Love the classics? Get stuck into a modern classic DIY cocktails party with some of the best cocktail pros in the business. If you’d normally go to a nice bar for some relaxing drinks with your loved one, this is an incredible alternative. There’ll be no queues to get in, absolutely no jostling to get served, and you can even keep cosy in your pyjama bottoms and slippers (we won’t tell if you don’t)! It’s a great chance to get an amazing mixologist all to yourself to learn some easy cocktails to make at home. You’ll have a lovely time mixing your concoctions and you’ll finish up with loads of new drinks skills to use forevermore. You’ll of course also have some delicious handcrafted beverages to indulge in too!  

Invite your favourite couple to join you and double-date it - chink those glasses together online and have a great relaxing catch-up (it must be up there with one of the best Zoom date ideas). You’ll be so proud of your finished drinks - imagine how satisfying it’ll be to enjoy some time together, sipping your own cocktails at home and knowing you made them yourselves. It’s the date night of dreams!
