Glasses and equipment:

We supply glass glassware for our masterclass guests to make drinks in. We will provide jiggers, Hawthorne strainers, fine strainers, Boston shakers, and anything else needed for the cocktails or mocktails that you have chosen to make - this equipment will be organised into 'stations' - we can provide up to 10 stations. There can be as many as two people per station. We provide ice in ice buckets with ice scoops in the centre of the table for shakers and drink building, with ice scoops. 

​

Stock:

We will provide the correct amount of ingredients for the number of drinks that will be made. Should your guests 'go rogue' and make up recipes or start doing shots we will issue a post-event invoice to cover the extra stock used, and they may end up missing out or preventing others from creating the next drink on the menu. Please discourage people from doing this if you see it, we want everyone to keep having fun so it's a shame when someone ruins it for others.

​

Staffing:

We will provide one mixologist to lead the masterclass and one bartender/waiter to keep everything running smoothly.

The use of our staff for tasks unconnected to our services must be agreed by us.

We reserve the right to refuse the sale or distribution of beverages to individuals who do not treat us or our members with respect. Abusive behaviour will result in police action and the immediate termination of the masterclass.
