Our School is now offering an online class that includes our Bartender Mixing Kit!
We are happy to be offering an interactive online class so that students can learn from any location! The class is taught the same way as our in-person sessions, so it’s an excellent way to learn the course material while getting plenty of hands-on mixing practice with a live instructor online. One of the best parts about the online class is that along with our Student Manual, we also send each online class student a Bartender Mixing Kit, which is theirs to keep! This kit has all of the equipment necessary to mix the cocktails, and it’s a great set of tools to use for future bartending pursuits!
How the Online Class Works:
The online class is 12 hours long. The first 8 hours are taken on our video learning platform during the student’s own time. Then after the student finishes watching the first 8 hours of videos, they can attend our next scheduled 4-hour interactive online mixing session to finish the final part of the class with a live instructor. We’ve found this to be an excellent way for students to learn all of the course material at their own pace, while also getting plenty of hands-on mixing practice with a live instructor who can answer questions and give feedback on their newly developed skills and mixing techniques.
Note: The first 8 hours of class are broken up into multiple videos with short quizzes and other interactive content. Students must finish each video before moving onto the next. At any time these self-paced videos can be paused and restarted at the same place they were left off, so they can be completed in one day or over the course of a longer period of time, such as over weeks or months.
1. The student signs-up for the 12-hour online class.
2. We send our Student Manual along with a Bartender Mixing Kit (both are the student’s to keep)
3. The student receives access to our online learning platform and watches the first 8 hours of the class on their own time (the videos can also be played at faster speeds if preferred, which can shorten the watching time).
4. After finishing the first 8 hours of class videos, the student attends their next scheduled 4-hour interactive online mixing session to practice mixing cocktails with a live instructor - this is the most fun part of class!
5. The student gets issued the alcohol safety certification program that is applicable in their state (either ServSafe® or a state-specific course depending on their location).
6. The student receives their Bar Card (Bartender Certificate Card) from our school verifying that they’ve completed the program.
7. They can now bartend with their newly learned mixology knowledge and bartending skills!
Cost of the Online Class:
The cost of the online class (including everything) is $189.00. This price includes:
• The Student Manual and Bartender Mixing Kit (both are the student’s to keep)
• The plastic wallet-sized “Bar Card” (Bartender Certificate Card) with Name and Student Number
• ServSafe® Alcohol Safety Program (or other state-specific alcohol safety program)
Note: The only things that the student needs to provide are a pen or a pencil, some ice for mixing (only needed for the 4-hour interactive online mixing part of the class), water from a nearby sink, and a flat surface to mix on.
1st Part of the Online Class - Completing the 8 Hours of Course Material:
Students take the first 8 hours of class on our online learning platform by watching self-paced videos. This online video part of class can be watched on the student’s own time in one sitting or during a longer period of time (the videos can also be played at faster speeds to shorten watching time, and they can be paused and restarted from where the student left off at any time). Our learning platform’s video series also includes short interactive quizzes and other engaging content to assist students with learning all of the course material.
Note: This first part of class must be completed before the student joins an interactive online mixing session with a live instructor to finish the class.
2nd Part of the Online Class - Attending the 4-Hour Interactive Online Mixing Session:
Upcoming Dates (students must only attend one of the mixing sessions listed below):
• Interactive Online Mixing Session: Sunday, July 13th, 2025 from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM Eastern Time
• Interactive Online Mixing Session: Sunday, August 17th, 2025 from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM Eastern Time

Note: Students must finish the first 8-hour part of the online class in order to attend an interactive online mixing session. If a student can’t join their next upcoming online mixing session, then they can just attend another one at a later date in order to finish the class.
Equipment Included in the Bartender Mixing Kit:
We send each student a full Bartender Mixing Kit that has everything needed to mix just about any type of cocktail. It’s a great set of tools that our online students get to keep in order to use for any future bartender pursuits.
1. Bartender Mixing Kit Tools: 1 large mixing shaker, 1 small shaker, 1 strainer, 1 jigger, 1 bar spoon, 1 wooden muddler, 1 waiter’s wine opener (corkscrew and bottle opener), and 1 ice scoop
2. Other Mixing Equipment Included: 2 liter-sized practice bottles complete with pour spouts, a rubber mat to mix the drinks on, and an ice bin
3. Glassware Included: A practice martini glass, a practice highball glass, and a practice rocks glass
What the Student Needs for the Online Class:
1. A pen or a pencil
2. The Student Manual and Bartender Mixing Kit (which are included with the online class and will both be delivered before it starts)
3. A flat surface to mix on (such as a kitchen counter or dining room table)
4. Ice for the 4-hour interactive online mixing part of the class (15 to 20 pounds of ice is enough)
5. A sink for filling bottles with water and emptying drinks
6. A device (such as a computer or smartphone/tablet with a stable internet connection) to log in to our online learning platform to watch class videos and attend the interactive online mixing session
Note: No alcohol is necessary to take this class as we provide empty bottles in the Bartender Mixing Kit in order to practice pouring liquid.
Optional Materials for the Interactive Online Mixing Session: Mixing with ice and water is fine to learn all of the cocktail mixing techniques, but if a student wants to use real mixers then we recommend small bottles (under 20 ounces) of orange juice, a small bottle of cranberry juice, a small bottle of a yellow mixer (such as pineapple juice or sour mix), a small bottle of milk, a small bottle of cola, and a small bottle of soda water. A more detailed list of optional materials will be sent in the confirmation email upon registration.
