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

Introduction / Content Overview

Vibrant colors, delightful flavors,
cocktails are a must-have for young bar-goers.

Engage in conversations about your understanding of drinks,
impress your friends by ordering a cocktail that suits them perfectly,
or create a special cocktail just for them.
It might be the best way to build a good impression.

Talking about ordering, tasting, and making cocktails,
it has become more than just a basic social skill at parties,
but also a way to enjoy a great evening and share personal tastes.

However, with the wide variety of cocktail types and different preparation methods,
it's hard to understand the intricacies without some 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 increase their knowledge and add excitement to their lives, without becoming professional mixologists or pursuing mixology as a career, there's no need to spend thousands or even tens of thousands of yuan on learning. That's why we have specially developed PET's unique cocktail workshops. Led by Simon, an IT professional with both an artistic flair and a professional spirit, this workshop offers the most informative, practical, and cost-effective cocktail tasting and making experience in the city. In just 9 hours, you can fully understand the knowledge and culture of cocktails, and under the guidance of the instructor, create several classic cocktails. Transform yourself from a novice drinker to a skilled mixologist who can appreciate and create cocktails. When you take your friends to a bar, you will shine as the star. If you wish, you can even follow in Simon's footsteps and create your own home bar or cocktail parties, becoming a fun and knowledgeable party expert.
