Learn to make a cocktail or mocktail from scratch.

“So for 2 days I had been brainstorming a bit and this afternoon I tried one of my ideas (only in a shotglass without the right measurements, just to taste how things go together). So my idea was to make something with orange, ginger, chocolate and cinnamon. This afternoon I made it with Cointreau, van Kleef ginger liqueur, Jack Daniels fire, and chocolate syrup. It had potential but it wasn't there yet. I added a bit of coffee and that was definitely a good add-on to it. After not being to comfortable at first I decided to see where this would take us. Telling them this was my first time creating my own cocktail in full. They were quite excited for it and were watching me. After adding Cointreau, ginger liqueur, kahlua (she thought it might be a good idea), chocolate and the coffee, I tried it and let them have a taste too and it was too sweet with little kick. I added a bit of jack Daniels fire and surprisingly enough she wanted some chili tequila in there as well. This actually made it come together really well. She really enjoyed the cocktail, they all tried it and they actually walked up to some other guests [...] and let them try it too. It made me really excited and proud of my first cocktail. Im definitely gonna refine it more over the coming period.”
