Capital K shaking up series of cocktail classes
Looking to master your martini, mojito, manhattan or margarita skills? Local distillery Capital K (3-1690 Dublin Ave.) is offering a series of cocktail classes designed for the budding mixologist. Capital K’s Jesse Hildebrand will lead attendees (aged 18 or over) through a crash course on the basics of creating four different cocktails, including recipes to take home to wow prospective party guests. The courses are being offered on numerous Fridays throughout October and November — specifically Oct. 19, Nov. 2, Nov. 16 and Nov. 30 — as well as Saturday, Nov. 17. Tickets for each class are $55 and include four cocktails (so plan a safe way home), recipes and light snacks; they can be obtained at wfp.to/capitalk.
