Join Angela Buck-Hatter for this cocktails class, where you'll learn to make old-school cocktail ingredients from scratch for your home bar. She’ll show you all the tools and techniques you need to make craft cocktails, as well as a bit of cocktail history and some ideas for classic homemade syrups, sodas, and flavoring agents. In this gin-focused class, you’ll taste the botanicals, essential oils, spices, and herbs commonly used in the gin distilling process, taste and talk about the flavor profiles of the various styles of gin, and learn how to successfully pair different styles of gin with commonly used mixers. You’ll shake, swirl, and sip as you learn to make and aromatic gin and tonic with handmade compound gin; rose petal gin sour with American-style gin; and an olive oil washed martini with London dry gin.
