One of the most exciting, hands-on experiences that Dublin Bar Academy offers is the Bartender for a night.
This is the perfect mix of entertainment and education, where each guest is greeted with a welcome cocktail upon arrival before sinking into the art behind mixology. This leisurely introduction is then followed by a Classic Cocktail Tasting, where guests have some time for sampling in anticipation of the Mix-Off Challenge, where things get a bit competitive!
Old Fashioned’s, Martini’s, Mai Tai’s and much more for you to sample on the night.
- Welcome cocktail on arrival
- Learn the art behind mixing cocktails
- Classic Cocktail Tasting
- Mix-off Challenge. Nothing like a bit of internal company rivalry to get your night off to a good start!
- Light Snacks
- Duration: 2.5h session
- Costs: €69 p/p
