Overview:
If you’re looking for an activity to make the weekend memorable, or something to bring together a group of girls who don’t all know each other , then cocktail making, or mixology as it’s called, is the perfect solution.

Experienced, professional and friendly mixologists will take you step by step through the history of cocktails and then show you how to make three of the classics, before handing you the bottles and letting your imagination and creativity run wild.

As you experiment under expert guidance as to what works and what doesn’t, you’ll start to appreciate a whole new art form and most excitingly develop skills which you can then hone with friends and family in the years to come.

Format:
Each group will have one or more cocktail ambassadors who will brief you on the day's activities before giving a short introductory talk on the history of the cocktail and the origin of the word. Each member of your group will then be given a bar tool which they will have to try to identify before putting the tools in the correct order of use when making a cocktail.

The ambassador will then make an introduction shot for the group where he/she will explain what all of the bar tools are used for. If you don't know the difference between a Hawthorn strainer and a Boston shaker, you'll find out.

Everyone then makes lemonade using real lemons, gomme and soda water, and you'll learn about how to perfectly balance sweet and sour. You'll use your lemonade to make a Raspberry Vodka Collins and a Passion Fruit Krushka.

You'll then be talked through the history of, and taught how to make a Mojito/Bison Grass Mojito, a Pear Caipirowska, a Cosmopolitan and a White Russian/Bride. Then it'll be your turn to show off your cocktail skills by going head to head with another member of your group in a shake off where you'll each make one of the cocktails.

The event will end with a mini quiz with two free cocktail vouchers each on offer for the winning team. To soak up some of the alcohol, your group will also have a couple of food platters to nibble at, with a wide variety of food.

Overview:
A treasure hunt is excellent fun if you are looking for something entertaining to do during the day which will get all your party involved and working together. We can arrange pre-set treasure hunts through all the UK's major towns, which involve approximately 40 questions, the answers of which are gained as you walk along your route through some of the most scenic and interesting parts of the town. A treasure hunt is a great way of getting to know the city and also find out some interesting information that you would never have guessed unless you had taken part!

Format:
You will need to appoint one of your member as 'hunt master'. They will decide how to split up the group into teams and will hold the answers to the questions. The routes are circular, so you will always end up at your start point and it is best if you arrange a set finish time when all the teams have to be back at the start point to hand in their answers. It's recommended for the group leader to then take all the group to a nearby bar, where you can read out the answers, mark off the score cards (this is best done by getting teams to swap question papers and score while the hunt master reads out the answers) and then distribute any prizes (or penalties!) the hunt master has set for the occasion.

What’s Included:
- Personalised pack (please let us know the stag/hen's name)
- 5 printed clue sets (suitable for up to 40 people)
- Approximately 40 questions per clue set, following a pre-set route.
- 1 set of answers for the hunt organiser.

Duration:
The treasure hunts will take approximately 2 hours to complete and are designed to be undertaken on foot.
