Bitter Truths: Bittersweet Summer Cocktails
September 21, 2018 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm PDT
Our Bitter Truths series delves into artisanal alcohol infusions, where we craft bitters from ethically sourced plants native to Stanley Park. Learn about the rich tradition of bitters as medicines and more recently as flavouring agents, opening a vast possibility of layers to drinks. As the summer comes to a close, try some flavours that reflect the bittersweet turn of the seasons.
In this workshop, you will:
- Learn infusing techniques to try at home to produce an array of bitters from local plants.
- Create delicious cocktails you can sample as you go, using an original blend of your own unique combinations of bitters. These will be pre-harvested and pre-infused, so no need for field or lab wear!
- Take home two dropper bottles of your favourite creations.
Open to ages 19+ only.
The amazing specialists at Tailored Spirits, a local distillery with a heart for the West Coast, will be leading us in their tried and tested techniques.
