Description

Learn how to make cocktails & charcuterie with Frank Frey! Work in small groups & build friendships with new people. Now that we are back to doing things in person again, why not brush up on your social skills while also enjoying an interactive group activity? Frank Frey, local expert bartender and foodie, will be teaching the class how to make whisky sours, old fashioned cocktails, and charcuterie boards. You'll work in teams of four to recreate recipes. There will be plenty of time to network and connect with other guests. At the end of the event, everyone will sit down and eat together. During the class, you'll also get to: - connect with people over more than just work topics - ease into social situations when interacting with new people now seems difficult - learn how to avoid awkward situations with conversation starters - beat isolation by getting out with new people who have common interests What to expect: You'll work in teams of four to recreate recipes.

"Emma did a great job bringing a diverse group of people together. We got to know each other outside of a work environment and were able to have fun making cocktails and food together. I'll definitely be back for another experience!" - Chris C., Colorado Springs Thanks to Distillery 291 for sponsoring!
