Thank you for your interest and stopping by! Welcome to the 4th class! "Shaken or Stirred"...you've probably heard this statement countless times. Either watching 007 ordering his drink, or whenever a Martini is mentioned. Come explore the world of Martinis, the history behind the drink, and some of its cousins. Did you know that the Martini, being so popular and instantly recognized, is based off its older cousin the Manhattan? Let's explore and discuss this wonderful concoction together! Either way, you'll definitely feel as smooth as Bond sipping your choice of a Martini. Thank you to everyone who joined the live session! I hope everyone had fun and learned some new cocktail trivia! It was a wonderful discussion we had; look forward to next month’s workshop!
