The holidays taste better with a good drink in hand.
In this festive edition of Behind Bars, Michael Jensen explores the flavors, spices, and spirits that make winter cocktails feel unmistakably seasonal, without falling into the usual overly sweet holiday classics.
Think warming spices, citrus, rich spirits, creamy textures, bubbles, and a few unexpected ingredients, all brought together in cocktails designed for colder nights, holiday dinners, and celebrations around the table.
You’ll learn how to build balanced seasonal drinks, how bartenders work with spice and texture, and how to turn familiar holiday flavors into cocktails that feel polished, modern, and worth recreating at home.
Expect three cocktails, festive bites, a little cocktail history, and plenty of hands-on mixing along the way.
An intimate, guided cocktail experience led by Michael Jensen at 430 PKWY.
