Oxymels, shrubs, and switchels may sound like they belong in a Harry Potter potion book — but you don’t need to be a wizard to make these delicious, herbal sipping beverages at home!

Sweet, tangy, and refreshingly fizzy, these drinks combine herb-infused vinegars, honey, fruit, and seltzer for the perfect summer thirst-quencher or an immune-boosting tonic for cooler months. They’re versatile enough to shine as mocktails, cocktails, or simply a creative, nourishing way to hydrate.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll sample a variety of herbal beverages, craft your own custom blend, and take home recipes, ideas, and the confidence to keep experimenting in your own kitchen.

Space is limited, pre-registration is required.
