The holidays are fast approaching. How about a signature cocktail for your event? In this workshop we will mix and taste a total of eight holiday-themed cocktail recipes. You will leave with all the recipes and get to choose which will have you crowned the “Host(ess) with the Most(est)” at your holiday gathering. And what’s a party without munchies? We will have a few of those on hand, too! Special thanks to our partners at Candlelight Inn Restaurant.
