PET Cocktail Tasting and Crafting Workshop #2 | Explore Cocktail Culture, Experience Mixology Fun, Become a Versatile Mixologist

Introduction / 内容介绍

With vibrant colors and delightful flavors, cocktails are a must-have for any young adult gathering at a bar.

Discuss your understanding of drinks, help your friends pick the perfect cocktail, or craft a special one for them – a great way to build rapport.

Talking about drinks, tasting, and mixing them is more than just a basic social skill at parties; it's a way to enjoy a lovely evening, sharing your personal taste in life.

With a wide variety of cocktails and diverse methods, without structured learning, the mysteries remain unknown.

Cocktail Tasting and Crafting Workshop

PET's new and old friends are eager to delve into the world of cocktails but find such courses scarce and expensive. For those seeking to expand their knowledge and add excitement to their lives without becoming professional mixologists, spending thousands on training seems unnecessary. That's why we've created the PET signature cocktail workshop. Led by the artistic yet professional IT guru Simon, this workshop offers the most informative, practical, and cost-effective cocktail tasting and crafting experience in the capital. Spend just 9 hours to gain a comprehensive understanding of cocktail knowledge and culture, and craft several classic cocktails under the instructor's guidance. Transform from a casual drinker to a skilled mixologist, shining bright as the star in your group outings. If inclined, you could follow in Simon's footsteps by hosting your own home bar or cocktail parties, becoming a fun and knowledgeable party enthusiast.
