Mixology class | Blind Tyger
The creative alternative to an alcohol-fuelled night on the town, taking part in a mixology class together will still guarantee some high- spirited fun. A tailored two-hour session at Blind Tyger grants plenty of time to enjoy a crash course into the world of mixology and master your favourite tipples. After learning secrets behind each drink, guests will also be given their own gin infusion kits and takeaway cocktails to continue the celebrations at home.
