COCKTAIL MASTERCLASS
Shake, stir and sing: a two-hour cocktail class, then two hours in your own karaoke room
Every time we shake a drink someone asks what is in it, so we built a class around the answer. In two hours behind our bar you learn the techniques, the secrets and the combinations that always work, make three or four cocktails yourself, and finish with a competition to settle who was paying attention. Then the group moves upstairs to a private karaoke room for two more hours.
£50 per person — 2-hour cocktail masterclass, then 2 hours in your own private karaoke room. Groups of 6–15, from 4pm.
- Make 3 to 4 cocktails Classics like the Mojito, Daiquiri, Margarita and Pina Colada, or your own creation, with the method to repeat them at home.
- Karaoke included Two hours in a private karaoke room after the class, so the party carries on without moving venue.
- Groups of 6 to 15 Hen dos, birthdays and team days. Hens go free with groups of ten or more.
- Alcohol-free option The same cocktails with non-alcoholic spirits. Tell us how many when you book.
Fun Hen Party Cocktail Making in London Bridge
The hen party favourite. The bride-to-be goes free with a group of ten or more, everyone gets a shaker and a station at the main bar, and the instructors keep it loud, friendly and slightly competitive. By the end you have a round of cocktails you made yourselves, a winner, and a karaoke room waiting upstairs. Book a free table in the bar for afterwards and the whole night is in one place.
How the Class Works
- Classes start at 4pm and run for two hours, followed by two hours of karaoke. Book at least two days ahead.
- You each make three or four cocktails at the main bar, with all equipment and ingredients provided. Just turn up thirsty.
- We finish with a competition to see how good you can be. The method you learn works with any spirit.
