Woking Academy

Cocktail masterclass

What's your favourite tipple? Get to grips with spirits and shakers, glasses and garnishes as we mix things up in a fun, interactive cocktail evening. We've chosen some of our favourite classic cocktails to master in this class, so that even if you're a complete beginner to shaking up a treat, you'll leave with all the skills to whip these up again and again at home!

What to expect

In Gordon's restaurants, we know how to make any evening special with a beautiful drink. What better than to learn how to bring a little piece of this magic to your own home with our chefs inspiring you to channel your inner mixologist and get creative for evenings entertaining, or a tasty treat to enjoy at the end of a long day!

Grab a loved one or a few friends and join our chefs in the beautiful Demonstration Kitchen to pull up a stool to our Academy bar for the night. During the class we'll focus on core techniques for shaking and mixing - giving you the skills to then explore more complex recipes at home. 

This relaxed evening will let you enjoy learning about classic tipples, getting hands-on shaking up your own cocktails and indulging in some delicious nibbles to go alongside. The perfect night out!
