Pre-Prohibition Cocktail Class Debuts at Wine School
Once decade later, the Wine School offers its first cocktail class! Featuring pre-prohibition cocktails from the book Corked & Forked.
- Philadelphia, PA-NJ (1888PressRelease) November 16, 2011 - This Friday, November 18th, the Wine School of Philadelphia is premiering it's first ever cocktail class! To celebrate, this tasting class is featuring our favorite style of cocktail: the wine-based cocktail, the classic pre-prohibition drink!
At the turn of the century, the drinking world was very different. Juices were squeezed by hand, bitters were concocted with local herbs, and ice was chipped by hand. This tasting class will take you back to the golden era of the cocktail, before the Volstead Act... and long before vodka destroyed the martini.
