Friday 30th October - 18:00

About this class

Join us to celebrate our Friday evenings by marking the end of the week with a homemade cocktail and snack​​​​,​​​​ but why would you do that alone with an average drink and a mediocre snack!? Tapas and Tails is the perfect way to kickstart your weekend​​​​,​​​​ with an outstanding drink​​​​,​​​​ snack and some great foodie chat. My warm Dogs nose is a rendition of a classic west country drink – scrumpy​,​ laced with gin! – here I have lightly spiced the cider and warmed it to make it more seasonal and added the gin simply to dry it out a little!

What you will learn

These sessions are designed to share tips and tricks which bring simple​​,​​ seasonal and delicious food together and create a great Friday evening experience while still in the comfort of our own homes. You will walk away with techniques on how to combine ingredients to create a fresh and wonderful homemade snack and interesting new cocktail.
