Workshop: To Batch or not to Batch? The pros and cons of batching cocktails

Description: For centuries, bartenders have batched cocktails (think punch!) for various reasons. It improves accuracy and efficiency, and some would argue flavor as well. But in Maine, a murky legal landscape begs the question, is it safe?

Workshop: What to mix with what they eat? Creating cocktails to complement cuisine

Description: As chefs continue to elevate their culinary offerings, bar managers must respond in kind. Creating a harmonious experience for your guests goes beyond putting saline in your Negroni. We will show you how to design cocktails that pair with food by controlling factors such as proof, temperature, and balance.
