Botanical Cocktail Making Class

About this class

This 90-minute cocktail class at Festival Café on Second Avenue uses farm-fresh herbs, edible flowers, and botanical spirits to guide groups of up to seven through building two or three original cocktails from scratch. The instructor covers flavor pairing logic, basic technique, and how to adjust a drink's balance, and each participant leaves with recipe cards to recreate the cocktails at home. Rated 4.8 on ClassBento and 4.4 on Yelp, Friday evening sessions run at 6pm in a setting that makes it a natural start to a weekend night out on the Upper East Side.
