Let’s add some flair to your home bar, while I simplify the art of mixology by teaching you how to play with flavours and shake up 2 delicious classic cocktails, with my personal twists and variations.
We will make :
1) Smokey honey sour
2) Chilli margarita
We will also learn some bartending techniques such as smoking and rimming your glass & muddling.
