The Mocktail Mix-Off!

Warning: may cause new friendships. A phone-free mocktail throwdown where strangers team up, mix weird ingredients & compete for glory!
About this Event

Join us for an exciting mocktail competition at 150 Peabody Place.

This is an exclusive, phone-free event designed to bring together adults who are looking to make friends for a night of high-energy creativity and friendly competition.

In a world where we're constantly distracted, we created a phone-free space where you can be fully present.

Whether you're looking to connect with other Memphians who are looking for friends or flex your creative skills, this experience is perfect for Memphis-area professionals who are ready to make new connections.

The Experience

• Mocktail Competition: Teams go head-to-head creating stunning mocktails using surprise mystery basket ingredients — revealed only when the clock starts.
• Blind Judging & The Finale: Competitors taste and judge each other's drinks blindfolded. The top team from each round advances to the finale, where the entire room gets to taste both teams' creations and vote alongside our host judges.

Why phone-free?

Because when phones are away, people actually look at each other. They laugh louder, listen better, and remember the night. Every Currently Offline event is designed so that the connection is the main event — the competition just gives you something to bond over.

Included in Your Ticket

• Full competition entry — every guest competes as a lead mixologist at least once during the night
• Access to a fully stocked central pantry of juices, syrups, and mixers
• Tasting pours of the finale drinks so the whole room gets to weigh in on the winner
• A guaranteed phone-free, fully present experience from the moment you walk in — no distractions, just the room

What to Expect

• Team Reveal & Strategy Time: Meet your team and get to know the people you'll be competing alongside. When your round begins, the mystery ingredients are revealed. Every duo a few minutes to strategize before the clock starts.
• The Rounds: Each team sends one duo at a time to the bar station for a 10-minute window to create one drink.
• Blind Judging Intermission: The teams that just competed put on blindfolds and taste each other's creations — scoring on taste, creativity, and presentation.
• The Finale: The top team from each round faces off one final time with a brand new mystery basket. Two lead mixologists craft the presentation drink while their four teammates scale the recipe into a large batch for the entire room to taste. Hosts judge the presentation drink. The crowd judges the batch. One team is crowned champion.

What to Bring

• Your competitive spirit — experience behind a bar is not required
• Your full, undivided attention — this is a phone-free event. Phones will be put away so you can be completely present for every moment of the night. Trust us, you won't miss the scroll.
