Holiday Cocktails

Reviewed by Nancy on 12/7/2013

We had a lot of fun. Bought it as a gift for a friend. Drinks were very different and interesting and gave us ideas for the holidays. I only wished they had some stools for us to sit on. That would have made it a bit more comfortable. The kitchen itself was a great space. Really enjoyed interacting with the other participants and tasting each other's drinks. Teacher seemed a bit uncomfortable with the presentation, but was very knowledgable and friendly. She needs to polish her skills a bit.
