Master the Art of Mixology
We’ve turned our passion for the bar into a dedicated space for learning. From one-day workshops for cocktail lovers to intensive diploma courses, our Bandra West academy is where we teach the skills that define modern mixology.
A glimpse into a cocktail workshop at our Drinq Barmen Academy. From our instructor's demonstration to students getting hands-on with shakers and ingredients, this is where the passion for mixology begins.
This collage captures our introductory sake session at the academy. Participants engaged in both theory, learning about sake's origins in a classroom setting, and practice, with hands-on pouring and tasting.
About Learn the Craft: Our Academy
Our training approach is hands-on because you cannot learn mixology from a textbook. Whether you are joining our single-day workshop to master three signature cocktails or enrolling in our 90-day advanced diploma, you will spend your time behind a real bar setup, using professional tools, and testing your creations in real-time at our Bandra West academy.
Our Training Modules
We structure our academy programs to match your goals, whether you want to host better house parties or build a career behind a bar.
**1-Day Cocktail Masterclass (Hobbyists) **Designed for those who want to get behind the bar without the long-term commitment. In this 3-4 hour session, you will learn to shake, stir, muddle, and layer. We keep batches small (6-10 participants) so you get individual attention while crafting and tasting 3-4 distinct cocktails.
**45-Day Basic Bartending Certification (Foundational) **This course covers the essentials for entry-level professionals. We move past basic recipes to teach you station setup, free-pouring mechanics, and the history of spirits. You will learn 50 recipes (classic and modern), with government-recognized certification upon completion.
**90-Day Advanced Mixology & Flair Diploma (Professional) **Our most comprehensive course. In addition to the basic modules, we dive into molecular mixology (spherification, foams, and dehydration) and high-volume service drills. We also cover exhibition flair training—the art of bottle manipulation—and specialized modules like wine service and coffee basics. This is the path for those aiming for high-end hotel or bar roles.
Why Learn With Us
Our instructors are active professionals. We don't just teach the 'correct' way to pour; we share the realities of the job, including how to handle a busy shift and maintain your station. You will graduate with a government-recognized certificate and, for our diploma students, the opportunity for internship placement. The academy in Bandra West is a working space designed to mimic the high-energy environment of a real bar.
