About this Event
Step into the garden behind the bar and discover the roots of your favorite drinks. The Drunken Herbalist: Anatomy of a Cocktail is an immersive tasting experience exploring the herbs, botanicals, spices, and citrus that give cocktails their character.
We’ll explore the diverse and adaptable spirit gin as our botanical spirit base — venturing beyond classics like Tanqueray and Beefeater to discover modern, floral, citrus-forward, and herbaceous expressions. Taste how different botanical profiles transform a cocktail and learn how to choose the right gin for the right drink.
You’ll break down the structure of a perfectly balanced cocktail — sampling individual elements, understanding how they interact, and watching a drink come to life from base spirit to bitter to bloom, and have the opportunity to create your own unique cocktail. Learn how and when to make syrups, infusions and bitters, or when to simply muddle them into the mix.
We’ll also share practical tips for growing your own cocktail garden, from mint and basil to rosemary, lavender, and edible flowers. Whether you have a backyard, raised beds, or a sunny windowsill, you’ll leave inspired to plant, snip, and stir with intention.
Perfect for the curious sipper, aspiring home mixologist, or anyone who loves knowing the “why” behind what’s in their glass.
