PET Cocktail Tasting and Making Workshop #2 | Learn Cocktail Culture and Knowledge, Experience the Joy of Mixology, Become a Versatile Mixologist

Introduction / 内容介绍

Vibrant colors, delightful flavors,
cocktails are a must-have for young people's bar gatherings.

Whether it's discussing your understanding of alcohol,
ordering a personalized cocktail for a friend, or
crafting a special cocktail yourself,
it's perhaps the best way to build a positive connection.

Talking about drinking, tasting, and mixing cocktails
is no longer just a basic social skill at parties,
but a wonderful way to enjoy a great evening and share personal taste with others.

However, with the wide variety and diverse recipes of cocktails,
it's hard to understand their secrets without systematic learning.

Cocktail Tasting and Making Workshop

PET's new and old friends are eager to participate in cocktail-related courses to gain a comprehensive understanding of cocktails. However, such courses are rare and expensive. For those who want to expand their knowledge and add excitement to their lives without becoming professional mixologists, it's unnecessary to spend thousands or even tens of thousands of yuan to learn. That's why we have specially designed PET's unique cocktail workshop. It will be taught by Simon, an IT expert who combines artistic spirit with professional expertise. He will bring you the most informative, practical, and cost-effective cocktail tasting and making workshop in the capital city. In just 9 hours, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of cocktail knowledge and culture. Under the guidance of the instructor, you will also have the opportunity to make several classic cocktails. This workshop will transform you from a cocktail novice into a versatile mixologist who can appreciate and create cocktails. Whether you take your friends to a bar or host your own cocktail party, you will shine as the star.
