Best News for Home Mixologists

While a properly made cocktail served in a classy establishment is a thing of beauty, there are definitely valid reasons to make your own drinks at home instead — primarily cost and the fact that nobody ever got a DUI sitting on their own couch. City Winery and Liquor Lab, the new “edutainment” venue on Second Avenue North, both offer classes to teach budding bartenders the techniques behind shaking and stirring up classic cocktails and the stories behind the spirits that somehow make them taste even better. City Winery’s classes are on a sporadic schedule, but Liquor Lab offers classes all through the week, every week. Cheers! CHRIS CHAMBERLAIN
