Mixology, Wine & Beer Events
ICE has a long roster of wine, beer and spirits experts to teach you and your guests tricks of the bar trade. Learn how to shake and stir a martini (hint: James Bond may not have always been right) and which wine pairs best with a NY strip steak (spoiler: it’s not always that big, juicy red you’re used to). Get shaking now.
Classic Mixology
Our events begin with a 30-minute reception complete with a plentiful cheese platter alongside wine and beer from the bar. This is followed by a 90-minute hands-on lesson that focuses on the shaking and mixing techniques, from the importance of using fresh juices to what tools are needed for a seamlessly stocked bar at home. Our expert mixologists will explain what makes the perfect cocktail, and when you’re ready to shake and stir, your group will have the opportunity to make and sample five craft cocktails. Non-alcoholic variations can be provided. Book a mixology event.
