Cocktail Experience
The Vaults Cocktail experience is an innovative team building or social occasion, held in the famous Vaults Restaurant & Bar in the heart of the city centre. It is designed to show the ground rules of mixing cocktails, basic ingredients and presentation. It is not a "flair" or bottle juggling course.
It may be part of a day visiting Cambridge, an unusual way of entertaining colleagues or clients, or a pre-cursor to an evening out in the City.
Available every day, it runs from 3pm until 7pm (times may vary on request), and is for groups of 8 - 20 people.
The Package Includes:
On arrival, a complementary glass of Prosecco is served, and the bar is open for preliminary libations. You are then split into smaller teams each led by a qualified mixologist.
1. Two Hour Interactive Tutorial
Led by a member of the professional Bar team, each group will be taken through the history of Cocktails and their evolution over the years. A demonstration of cocktail making techniques, basic cocktail recipes and tasting of the ingredients and end results follows.
There will be plenty of opportunity to ask questions - and you are expected to take notes during the training session for future use!
2. Cocktail Competition
Using your knowledge and notes, each group will then be asked to create a cocktail from a selection of ingredients chosen by the experience leader. One member of each team will make the cocktail in front of the whole group, and the leader will chose a winning cocktail from those made.
The winning team will receive a bottle of bubbly!
To round off the day, everyone will receive a professionally made cocktail, vouchers to use in The Vaults Restaurant should you wish to stay for dinner, and a certificate of achievement.
The price of the full course is £25 per person.
Full packages with dinner and fine wine after your cocktail experience are also available - ask for details.
