Dutch Courage Officers' Mess might be known for slinging plenty of gin, but the Fortitude Valley bar also knows a few important boozy truths. Sometimes, your favourite watering hole is closed. Sometimes, you don't really feel like hitting the club. Sometimes, you just want to kick back on the couch with a cocktail (or several) in your hand.
To help, the bar puts on regular masterclasses — teaching you the tricks of its trade and serving you up a few beverages in the process. And the September class sure does have a buzz about it. Yes, it's all about making espresso martinis.
From 3.30–5pm on Saturday, September 21, you'll discover how to whip up a classic espresso martini, plus Dutch Courage's own variation: the Cradle Snatcher, which features butter vodka, agave and a Nutella rim.
Learn, make, drink — that's all on the agenda as part of your $42 ticket, as is an energetic start to your Saturday shenanigans. Bookings are essential.
