Cocktail Class: Drinking the Decades: Tammy's Tastings
In my classes I often talk about the 1970s through 1990s as the dark ages of cocktails. But there were a few treasures in there, and then we came out the other side, into the cocktail renaissance. In this class we'll mix and sample cocktails from the last 50 years of drinking and learn how we went from Harvey Wallbangers to a craft cocktail bar in every town.
Your booking includes light snacks (pretzels, nuts). The Last Word is closed during the class, so no food service is available. The class includes a combination of history and stories, technique instruction, and hands-on making of cocktails. Plus sampling, of course! Total consumption is equivalent to 1.5-2 cocktails per person over the 90-120 minute class.
301 W Huron St ,Ann Arbor. https://www.tammystastings.com/events/in-person-drinking-the-decades-ann-arbor/ $59. tammylc@tammystastings.com tammystastings.com 7342763215.Add this event to your calendar: Google Calendar | iCal
