An In-Depth Look at the Experience
The Atmosphere and Setting
This isn’t your average cocktail class. From the moment you arrive, you’re welcomed into a vibrant, campy setting where the bar is decked out with disco balls and lively decor. The hosts, a group of charismatic drag queens, set the tone with playful banter and a warm, welcoming attitude.
The initial hour is spent in a relaxed environment where the queens get to know the group, find out what drinks you like, and prep for the show. During this window, the bar offers 2-for-1 signature cocktails, so even before the fun begins, you’re already indulging. The atmosphere is casual but lively, with plenty of opportunities to mingle, take photos, and soak up the campy vibe.
The Itinerary: How the Night Unfolds
Warm-up and Introduction
Once the queens are ready, they come over to engage with the group, starting with a round of free shots to loosen everyone up. This is a great way to start the night on a high note, breaking the ice with laughter and cheers. Expect plenty of banter and playful teasing—these drag queens are experts at creating a fun, non-judgmental environment.
Group Activities and Drink Making
The first activity involves the bride or birthday girl choosing a partner for the first cocktail. This initial round is designed to be simple and fun, encouraging interaction. The selected pair will shake or stir** their drink while the host provides entertaining commentary.
Next, the group splits into two halves. The first half gets to make two identical cocktails—one for themselves and one for another guest. This ensures that everyone is actively involved, even if you’re not confident behind the bar. The experience underscores the hands-on aspect of the class, meaning you’ll leave with more than just memories—you’ll have actually learned some basic cocktail skills.
Tasting and Competition
After a breather, the second round involves a shaken cocktail made by the bride or birthday person. The queens add a bit of theatrical flair here, encouraging friendly competition to see who can make the best drink. Once done, they prepare a large batch for everyone to taste, making this a communal, festive moment.
Shots and Shots!
The remaining guests then get to make Baby Guinness shots—a fun, quick shot that’s as tasty as it is easy to prepare. The hosts quiz you on the ingredients, demonstrate, then let you try making them. It’s often turned into a friendly challenge to see who can craft the best shot, adding an element of lighthearted rivalry.
The Final Flair
The highlight of the evening comes when the bride or birthday girl gets a turn to create her own signature cocktail. She’s given free rein to mix, garnish, and name her drink, which then appears on the bar’s menu as a special cocktail available throughout the day and night. This personalized touch makes the event feel special and memorable.
Wrapping Up
To finish, the group is treated to small tasters of the signature cocktail created by the guest of honor, rated by everyone. The event concludes with more shots and a big cheer for the bride or birthday girl, leaving everyone with a sense of celebration and camaraderie.

At around $50.51 per person, this experience offers more than just a cocktail class; it’s a full-blown interactive party with entertainment, drinks, and a memorable shared experience. The price is quite reasonable given the length, the entertainment, and the inclusion of free drinks and multiple chances to participate.
One important note: the experience itself lasts only about an hour, but you should plan to spend 2–3 hours in total. This allows time for mingling, enjoying your cocktails, and soaking up the atmosphere—the kind of flexibility many travelers appreciate when booking a fun night out.
Who Will Love This Experience?

If you’re after a lighthearted, humorous, and interactive night, this offers a fantastic way to create memories with friends.
However, those with mobility issues or requiring wheelchair access should know that the experience isn’t suitable for wheelchair users due to the nature of the venue and setup. It’s also not a traditional cocktail class—more of a party with a bit of cocktail education thrown in—so if you’re expecting a serious mixology lesson, you might want to look elsewhere.
