If you did not know, Cocktail Nirvana is supposed to be a speciality bartending service in Bangalore. More about it here. Serveral months after a short stint at Indiranagar`s famous jazz club - Take 5, I am performing at two events this Christmas Season.
Tonite on the Christmas Eve, I will be teaching guests for dinner buffet at Silsila-@-Silicrest Koramangala, how to mix cocktails. And tomorrow for a Christmas Buffet , I will be manning the bar of Casa-Del-Sol in Residency road, teaching their guests the art of mixology.
Cocktail Nirvana would have its very own bar counter at the restaurants. Like a seasoned Chef De Bar, I will be carrying my own bar equipment too. Two drinks that I have selected to teach people at this event are Mojito & Daiquiri. Both of them are Cuban cocktails. While I will be doing the heavier version of Mojito with brown sugar and dark rum topping, I will be doing a Kiwi or Strawberry Daiquiri.
Though its Christmas time, I will be teaching these summary drinks as they go well with almost any cuisine. Lets see how the gigs go!!!
Cheers
