Celebrate Valentine’s Day with a one-of-a-kind cocktail experience at our glassblowing studio. We’re thrilled to welcome Beth Vandergrift, who will guide guests through a hands-on, 2 1/2 hour cocktail class featuring two Valentine’s–themed cocktails. Along the way, Beth will share the history and stories behind each drink while teaching the techniques needed to recreate them at home. All supplies are provided, and guests will enjoy the equivalent of two full cocktails throughout the class. Each drink will be served in handblown glassware created on site in our studio, making this a truly immersive and memorable experience that blends craft, creativity, and celebration. Light snacks will be available, and guests are welcome to bring their own food if they’d like something more substantial. Whether you’re coming with a partner, friends, or treating yourself, this class is a perfect way to toast to Valentine’s Day in style. This is not just a tasting — it’s a guided, interactive experience where you’ll build each cocktail yourself while learning techniques you can easily recreate at home. During the class, you’ll also experience something you won’t find anywhere else — live glassblowing happening right alongside your cocktails! As you mix and sip, our glass artists will be shaping molten glass in real time. You’ll feel the heat, hear the tools, and witness the transformation from liquid to solid — adding a layer of energy and artistry that turns your night into more than a class… it becomes a full sensory experience tied directly to what’s in your glass. 🍸 WHAT’S INCLUDED ✔️ Hands-on instruction to create 2 full cocktails ✔️ All ingredients and mixology supplies provided ✔️ Use of handmade glassware during the class ✔️ A guided experience focused on technique, flavor, and presentation for the beverage ✔️ A unique studio atmosphere and one live glassblowing demo specific to your group 🕔 Class begins at 6pm Please arrive 15 minutes early to check in with the host and enjoy the atmosphere.
