About Beverage & Mixology Workshops
What We’re About
We love turning an ordinary day into something you’ll remember. For us, it’s not just about learning to stir or shake a drink. It’s about jumping in, exploring new flavors, and sharing stories that linger long after the last sip.
What Happens in Our Workshops
- Every session is hands-on - you get your own bar setup, not just a demo. Our resident mixologists walk you through all the basics, but there’s plenty of room for you to get creative.
- We’ve got a thing for stories. Like, did you know punch has roots in India? Sometimes, we’ll throw in a Mystery Box Round where you invent a drink on the spot.
- You’ll see Indian ingredient cocktails pop up often in our menus - kokum, jaggery, tulsi, all sorts of local stuff.
- Not only cocktails - we run kombucha brewing workshops, coffee making experiences with Indian beans, and even Japanese tea ceremonies. There’s something for everyone, even if you don’t drink alcohol.
The Vibe
It’s like walking into a friend’s kitchen party. No need to know anything in advance. We bring all the gear, you just bring your curiosity. Nobody’s judging - we want it to be chill, chatty, and honestly a bit messy sometimes.
Who Usually Likes This
- People bored of the same weekend plans
- Friends looking for something fun to do together
- Couples on a date night
- Teams wanting unique team outing activities
If you want to try something different and not too serious, you’ll fit right in.
