Non-alcoholic cocktails—or "mocktails" as they’re also called—are all the rage these days, and a great way to celebrate and enjoy the taste of cocktails without the alcohol!
In this class, we will use an array of syrups, herbs, fruits, and mixers to craft our very own custom mocktails! Join Laena for a 60-minute class, as we sip, mingle and learn the art of making delicious, non-alcoholic cocktails! Everyone will get a little bottle of herbal syrup to take home with them.
