About this Event
We’ll meet herbs and other plants used for making craft mocktails! Bring your herb and spice questions and learn how to grow a variety of plants useful for making fun drinks—many are also used in the kitchen or as teas and medicine. We’ll provide a demonstration and then break out into groups to make four plant infused mocktails. BYOCup or mug for tasting. Cheers! Designed for those 18+.
Walkups welcome.

You are welcome to drop off in the circle but we are not allowed to park there. Google maps will sometimes confuse the garden’s address (620 Babcock Dr, Madison, WI 53706) and navigate to Leopold Residence Hall.

There also ticketed by not paid parking in the Observatory Drive Ramp next to Steenbock Library (lot 36). Always refer to posted signage.
