Drinking Lesson guests can expect an animated two hour lesson in the preparation and history of (at least) three distinct cocktails. To temper the libations the Hunt Club will pepper the evening with a few small bites from the kitchen. Sessions are limited to twelve individuals only.

In an effort to not only imbibe – but also to document the new American cocktail we are honored to continue partnering with the web-based cooking encyclopedia Foodista.com. Foodista will have staff on hand at all Drinking Lesson events to document the recipes, transcribe them to the web in real time, and create a web-based event out of the proceedings so that people around the globe can take part in the intimate experience at the bar. $55/person per class.

+ Our first edition of recipes Drinking Lesson: Volume One is now available at the Sorrento. Featuring recipes by Murray Stenson, Ryan Magarian, Robert Hess, and Jeffrey Morgenthaler. $10.

*Robert Hess Absinthe Soiree – we will have details very soon.
