About the Event

What is the difference between a trident spoon and a Japanese bar spoon?

What is the difference between a Vodka + Cranberry juice cocktail and a Cape Cod?

What bar shaker is the best one?

These are all common questions when you enter the world of bartending. We are here to answer these questions while learning some fantastic bartending skills!

Bar Basics is a five-part course that will dive into the techniques, terminology, cocktail knowledge, and much more you cannot get from watching episodes of Bar Rescue. We aim to empower you whether you are a bartending connoisseur or just entering the industry.

Over five parts, we will cover:

  • Deep dive knowledge of the BIG 5 (Whisk(e)y, Rum, Tequila, Vodka, and Gin)
  • Pairing liqueurs, cordials, mixers
  • Making syrups
  • Bitters and tinctures
  • Understanding tasting and nosing profiles
  • Different bar tools for other drinks and their proper use
  • Common and uncommon garnish and styling techniques
  • Hands-on craft and classic cocktail making
  • And more

At the end of the course, you will be given a certificate of completion and an opportunity to be invited to the Cocktail Collective’s NTB (New to Bartending) Cocktail Challenge, where you will have the chance to display the skills and knowledge gained over the course.

FAQS

Do I have to attend every part of the course?

It is not required to attend every part. Each part will inevitably tie into the next. Attendance and participation in every section are required to receive the certificate of completion.

What if I don't drink? Can I still participate?

There is no requirement to drink to participate. That being said, if you cannot sample the spirits to determine taste profiles for how to pair and mix properly, this course may not be worth it for you.
