Each cocktail-making class is 90-minutes. You'll learn one advanced technique from our professional bartending curriculum, and two finished drinks you build and drink yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis edition is all about fall flavour. The technique of the night is infusion, the single cheapest way to make any home bar feel custom. You'll learn how professionals steep chai, cinnamon, and orchard fruit into syrups and creams. You'll learn when to use a hot infusion versus a cold one. Then you'll finish your drinks the way a bar chef would, with a few drops of aromatic bitters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery drink is poured zero-proof in class. Real spirit profiles, real technique, all the craft of the cocktail with none of the morning after. Every recipe also works both ways. Your take-home cards include the zero-proof build you made in class and the full-proof version for your home bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe two cocktails on the menu\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe Chai Colada\u003c\/strong\u003e · a spiced twist on the Piña Colada, built on your own chai-coconut infusion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe Pumpkin 95\u003c\/strong\u003e · a sparkling French 75 gone full autumn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat you'll learn\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInfusion basics: hot vs. cold, what each is for, and shelf life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to build a spiced infusion from scratch, ratio by ratio.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBitters as a finishing tool.
