Title / 主题

PET Cocktail Tasting and Crafting Workshop #2 | Explore Cocktail Culture, Learn Mixology, Become a Cocktail Maestro

Introduction / 内容介绍

With their colorful hues and delightful flavors, cocktails are a must-have for any young adult gathering at bars.

Engage in discussions about your understanding of drinks, help your friends choose the perfect cocktail, or craft a special cocktail for them, perhaps the best way to make a positive impression.

Talking about ordering, tasting, and crafting cocktails is more than just a basic social skill at parties; it's a way to enjoy a good evening and share personal tastes.

With a variety of cocktail types and methods, without systematic learning, the intricacies of cocktails remain unknown.

Cocktail Tasting and Crafting Workshop

PET's new and returning friends are eager to participate in cocktail-related courses to gain a comprehensive understanding of cocktails. However, such courses are rare, expensive, and unnecessary for those who simply want to expand their knowledge and add a touch of excitement to life, rather than becoming professional mixologists. Therefore, we have designed a unique PET cocktail workshop for everyone. Led by the artful and 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 fully grasp cocktail knowledge and culture, and craft several classic cocktails under the instructor's guidance. Transform from a novice drinker to a skilled cocktail enthusiast who can both appreciate and craft cocktails, shining bright as the star when taking friends to the bar. If you wish, like instructor Simon, you can set up your own home bar or cocktail parties, becoming a fun and knowledgeable party host.
