New 'Artisanal Cocktail Coaching' Teaches
the Art of Mixology with Hands-On Experience
Riviera Maya, Mexico, July 9, 2012: Learn how to mix Mojitos, Margaritas and other popular cocktails the way expert bartenders do by immersing yourself in the art of mixology with a unique hands-on program introduced at the Viceroy Riviera Maya (www.viceroyrivieramaya.com).
Artisanal Cocktail Coaching teaches professional mixology skills and insights that can easily be applied at home - and incorporates actually working at the resort's Coral Bar to hone your newly acquired knowledge.
"More than a class, Artisanal Cocktail Coaching is an experience where our guests learn mixology from the bottom of the glass up," explained General Manager Pedro Lara. "The full scope of mixology is covered, including understanding the unique characteristic of each ingredient, rules and techniques of blending, putting the perfect final touches on a cocktail, and practical application by working at our Coral Bar as part of the mixology team."
Guests not only learn to make a variety of different drinks like a professional bartender, but also sophisticated specialty cocktails that have been created by the master mixologists at the Viceroy Riviera Maya. These include Mojitos in fruit flavors, including Very Berry and Citric; Popsicle Margaritas, in such flavors as Ginger, Pineapple and Cilantro, and Watermelon Smash, garnished with a popsicle of a complementing flavor; Micheladas, prepared cocktails that are similar to a Bloody Mary; and Carafe sparkling drinks in unique flavors such as Julep (with aged rum, gin, sour orange and mint leaf) and Mango Basil (with rum, prosecco, mango nectar, sour orange and basil leaf). See the attached Viceroy Riviera Maya Cocktail Menu.
Artisanal Cocktail Coaching is available for one guest, a couple, or a group of up to four guests. Rather than held at a set time, it may be arranged at a time convenient for the guests. It is conducted by the Artisan Mixologist Master at the Coral Bar.
