Questions, answered

Before the first pour.

Do you provide bartenders, bar setup, or event planning?+

No. We provide cocktail design and the execution toolkit only, so your own team or chosen bar partner can execute confidently anywhere.

Where do you work?+

Nationwide, fully remote. The design process happens virtually and the finished toolkit travels to your event team.

How far ahead should we book?+

Generally, allow 2-3 weeks of lead time so there is room for discovery, design, refinement, and handoff.

Do you cap attendee numbers?+

No. Standard remote packages have no attendee caps. We design the guidance to scale to your setting.

Do you ever come on-site?+

On-Site Presence/Support is available as a separate add-on. Travel and accommodations apply.

What do we receive?+

Depending on scope, you may receive recipe cards, shopping lists, batching and scaling guides, training materials, staff guidance, alternative ingredient options, and instructional videos.

How do we get started?+
