High-volume cocktail events can be exhilarating and profitable, but they also require an incredible amount of oversight and attention to detail to prevent catastrophic hiccups that can destroy service during the said event. This class delves into the fiscally responsible, mentally favorable, and notably sustainable world of batching as a method for executing high-volume events. Batch Queen Amie Ward, Beverage Director of Camp Runamok, will lead this class and share some of their favorite hacks for navigating the batch world!
