In grade 6 I lost the school spelling bee to a kid named Vincent when I couldn’t spell the word AMBULANCE. I took the loss humbly, and went straight to the bike racks and let the air out of Vincents tires. NOW WHO NEEDS AN AMBLUENCE, HUH VINCENT?
anyway, this event is going to be hilarious. You’ll learn to make 3 full size cocktails and compete in a mini spelling bee, complete with scorecards and prizes for winners and runner ups. We’ll start with some REALLY easy ones and work our way up as the cocktails provide confidence.
*THIS IS AN ANNUAL EVENT, THE WINNER RECEIVES THE HIGHLY COVETED TROPHY AND BRAGGING RIGHTS FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR.
Limited tickets! You don’t want to miss this one!

FALL COCKTAIL MENU!
We’ve been experimenting with fat washed recipes at our events since the release of our first cocktail book back in 2020. Fat Washing might not sound like the most appetizing activity, but it’s an incredible infusion technique to add depth, flavour, and mouthfeel to classic and modern recipes.
At this workshop you’ll learn to make 3 full size recipes using a variety of fat washed spirits, liqueurs, and syrups. Think Brown Butter, Sesame Oil, Virgin Coconut, and the right spirit choice for each!

The world is a wacky place (citation needed)
From the prohibition of alcohol in Canada and the United States, to strange liquor laws and modern revolutions, we just can’t seem to make up our minds when it comes to our favourite cocktails and how to drink them.
Join us for a stroll through over 100 years of history as we learn to make some controversial and absolutely delicious recipes. Do they taste better because they were banned? who knows. Absinthe, American Speakeasy recipes, weird garnishes and more!
Note: We’re here to have fun, all of the ingredients and cocktails for the event are safe and legal.
