What to Expect at Our Cocktail Making Experiences.

Your cocktail making session begins with an introduction to the fundamentals of mixology, including flavour balance, shaking and stirring techniques, and the role of spirits, mixers, and garnishes. You’ll then move to your own works station to create a series of cocktails, guided step-by-step by our knowledgeable hosts.

Using premium spirits produced at SIP Distilling Co, you’ll learn how different ingredients work together to create well-balanced drinks. Along the way, you’ll pick up professional tips and tricks that you can recreate at home.

Along the way, many guests choose to explore flavour further through our gin tasting experiences, where botanicals and balance are explored in more depth.

Each experience is interactive, social, and designed to be enjoyed at your own pace. No prior experience is required, just a willingness to learn, experiment, and have fun. The focus is on creativity, confidence, and enjoying the process as much as the finished cocktails.

For those wanting to dive deeper into distilling, our gin making workshops in Auckland offer a fully hands-on experience inside the distillery.
