EDUCATION: Campari Academy Presents: Diving Deeper - A Hands-On Explora-topia of Cocktail Nerdery

Join Campari Academy and some of our top 2024 guest instructors for a day full of hands-on exploration! For this session, our instructors will take a deeper dive into their respective areas of expertise and offer creative, insightful, and most importantly, useful insights that can elevate your bar programs. Students will rotate through mastering milk punch (including alternative milks!) with Josh Seaburg, learning more than they ever knew possible about frozen drinks with Michael Moberly, and carving crystal-clear ice with the one and only Camper English. All this, plus more surprises from the Campari Academy education team (including Anne Louise Marquis, Jessamine McLellan, Eddie Hansel, Benny Hurwitz, JoAnn Street, Xavier Herit, Mary Palac, and Olivia Cerio). It's going to be a fun, nerdy, messy, and inspiring day - we'd love to have you join us.
