About this Event
Your Next Cocktail Night Has a Story
What do World War I artillery, a legendary Parisian bar, and a bottle of Champagne have in common?
One of the most fascinating cocktails ever created.
Join Elite Bartending School Orlando for 90 minutes of drinks, entertaining stories, live demonstrations, and a few surprises as we uncover the outrageous history of the French 75.
This isn't an ordinary history lecture or a traditional bartending class. It's an intimate, hosted cocktail tasting where the stories are almost as interesting as the drinks.
3 Drinks. None of Them Your Standard French 75.
Throughout the evening, you'll enjoy three different drinks inspired by the French 75 and its evolution.
We'll begin with an unexpected Champagne tradition, explore a forgotten version of the famous cocktail, and finish with our own modern creation featuring Cognac and Champagne foam.
Along the way, we'll explore questionable cocktail legends, vintage Parisian bars, and the fascinating characters who shaped drinking culture.
Expect vintage imagery, theatrical sound effects, live cocktail demonstrations, and plenty of fascinating stories.
