Overview:
Get into the mix with a cocktail making and DJing masterclass. Cocktails and great music is the recipe for a fantastic evening and your team won't be disappointed as you get to try your hands at mixing cocktails and mixing a few tunes.

On arrival guests will be shown to their tables and served a fresh fruit cocktail whilst one of the bartenders performs a spectacular cocktail flaring routine to break the ice and get everyone in the cocktail making mood.

In your teams you'll be asked to to think up a funky name (Shaken not Stirred or Jim'll Mix It for example) and then brainstorm drink-related buzz words that reflect the personalities in your group or the ethos of your team- some of your team may be bubbly and sweet, others bitter!

The superb mixologists will then give you a detailed demonstration of how to mix a tongue-tingling cocktail before asking for a volunteer from each team to step behind the bar and make their own version of the cocktail against the clock, which the experts will judge. 

Your team will be challenged to create their own cocktail using some of the contents from a mystery box of ingredients. The mixologists will be on hand throughout to give you plenty of advice and help you mix a great original drink.

Teams will have to launch their drink with a live presentation of the product to the judges which will be accompanied by top tunes brought along and mixed by team. The judges will sample the drinks and assess the teams on the quality of their cocktails and their presentations. There will be prizes on offer for best presentation, best bartender and best music.

For posterity members of our team will be snapping photographs throughout and there is even the option of having your presentations filmed. To finish the night with a bang, one of our DJs will be on hand to spin a few tunes.
