World Class Cocktail Week 2015
Calling all stirrers and shakers.
Overview
Whether you’re a stirrer or a shaker, a sipper or a slurper, World Class Cocktail Weekis dedicated to you. For seven glorious days between May 25 and 31, cocktail-centred happenings will be taking place all over Sydney and Melbourne. The festival is the creation of Alex Adams (aka Ms Darlinghurst), who you might know as the founder of Secret Foodies.
The program ranges from Frida Kahlo-style Mexican feasts, featuring the artist’s favourite dishes matched with margaritas, to masterclasses at Eau-de-Vie exploring all things related to the mighty martini and workshops in which Yoshi Onishi, bar manager at Tokyo Bird, teaches you how to hand chip ice balls.
Then there are degustations by the bar, cocktail-tastings as time travel, high teas starring champagne cocktails and bush tucker experiences featuring native-inspired mixology.
