In-Person Cocktail Classes

Hands-On Mixology.
Unforgettable Night.

Our most popular experience. Your group learns to craft 3 cocktails guided by our professional bartenders — then competes for the title of best cocktail maker. Energetic, delicious, and genuinely fun for any group.

01

Professional Bartenders Lead

Our bartenders teach, guide, and entertain. They keep the energy high and make sure everyone — from beginners to enthusiasts — has a great time.

02

3 Cocktails Per Person

Guests craft a guided cocktail first, then two more with increasing independence. Each one is theirs to drink — and enjoy.

03

Competition & Prize

The class ends with a friendly competition — our bartender judges, the group votes. The best cocktail wins a prize. Always the highlight of the night.

04

Everything Included

Bar tools, mats, ice bins, craft syrups, garnishes, cups, straws, napkins. We bring it all — you source nothing.

05

Mocktail Options

We always offer mocktail versions so non-drinkers participate fully and enjoy the exact same experience.

06

We Come to You

No venue required. We set up at your home, office, or any space. Don't have a venue? We work with partners across DC, MD & VA.

Anywhere in the World.

Our virtual cocktail-making class brings the full Boa Bar experience to your screen. Curated boxes shipped to your guests — zero-proof or alcoholic — with everything needed to mix along live with our bartender.

01

Boxes Shipped to Guests

Each participant receives an identical box with everything needed to make 2–3 cocktails. Pre-measured, ready to go — no prep required from your guests.

02

Live Guided Session

Our bartender leads the class live over video — step by step, with cocktail history, tips, and great energy. Everyone mixes together, no matter where they are.

03

Cocktail Challenge

Optional breakout room competition with judging by our bartender. The best cocktail maker wins — remotely. Always the highlight of the session.

04

Zero-Proof Available

Every box can be zero-proof or alcoholic. A great way to make sure every participant — wherever they are — can fully join in.

05

Recipe Cards Included

Keepsake recipe cards so guests can recreate their favorite cocktail long after the class is over.

Guided Demo & Tasting

Watch, Learn,
and Taste.

A more relaxed cocktail experience. Our bartender demonstrates 3 cocktails in front of your group — explaining spirits, techniques, and flavor balance — then serves each one to every guest. No mixing required.

01

Bartender Demonstrates

Our bartender works at the bar in front of your group — preparing each cocktail step by step while sharing the story, technique, and inspiration behind it.

02

Everyone Tastes Together

After each demo, the cocktail is poured and served to all guests simultaneously. Communal, intentional, and elegant.

03

Learn to Make Them at Home

Guests leave knowing how to recreate all 3 cocktails. Our bartender shares brand recommendations and tips that actually make a difference.

04

Customizable Theme

Martinis, margaritas, mojitos, classics, seasonal — we build the demo around a theme that matches your event, group, or occasion.

05

We Come to You

We set up at your home, office, or venue. No space? We help find a venue through our partners — rental fee applies and quoted separately.

06

Optional Q&A

Guests can ask anything — about cocktails, spirits, bartending, the industry. It turns into a genuine and memorable conversation.
