Put a fresh spin on a classic and explore what happens beyond tequila.
Join us for a fun, interactive cocktail class that reimagines a timeless favorite. The Art of the Margarita: Beyond Tequila explores how different base spirits can transform a bright, citrus-forward cocktail, all in a relaxed, social setting. Along the way, you’ll learn how the margarita fits into the broader “sour” family of cocktails—a timeless formula built on spirit, citrus, and sweetness.
What You’ll Make
In this unique experience, you’ll explore a curated lineup of cocktails inspired by the classic margarita structure, featuring tequila, rum, brandy, and vodka. Each variation highlights the distinct personality of the spirit while maintaining that signature balance of citrus and sweetness that defines a well-built sour.
De will guide you through essential techniques including shaking, balancing flavors, and garnishing, while breaking down the simple ratio behind great cocktails—giving you tools you can easily apply at home. After the demonstration, guests will pair up and choose two cocktails to make themselves using professional bar tools.
By the end of class, you’ll understand how to build a balanced sour, how different spirits influence flavor, and how to confidently experiment with your own creations.
Perfect for date night, a night out with friends, or anyone looking to elevate their home bartending skills, this class blends hands-on learning with guided tasting and lively conversation. All tools and ingredients are provided—just bring your curiosity and appetite for fun.
