Tammy’s Tastings with Mixologist Tammy Coxen

Do you love craft cocktails? Do you like to mix drinks at home, but want to take your mixology skills to the next level? Tammy’s Tastings cocktail classes are for you!

You’ll receive your recipe list 7-10 days prior to the event, giving you plenty of time to shop and prepare any optional specialty ingredients. Tammy will tell the stories of the first few cocktails, including their ingredients and history, using pictures, videos and live demonstrations. We will then take the first break for mixing! You will have the option of mixing your choice of cocktail(s) from the list of 8-10 provided, and get live tips on substitutions and ingredients as needed. The second half will give you more stories and pictures about the rest of the cocktails, followed by a last round of mixing, questions and sharing.

PROHIBITION AND REPEAL

Prohibition in America lasted from 1919 to 1933 and changed the face of the country. How did we end up there in the first place, how did we get out of it, and what we were drinking along the way? Some of the cocktails you could create at home include: Bee's Knees, Scofflaw, Mary Pickford and the Boulevardier.
