Last week I had the pleasure of taking part in a Cocktail Masterclass at the Europa Hotel with my fellow NI bloggers!

The event called ‘Mix and Mingle’ organised by Hasting Hotels was a chance for us all to get together, have a laugh and try our hand at cocktail making with the infamous Europa mixologist Paddy!

Paddy has won numerous awards for his craft around the world, so it was great to see and hear from him about which flavours go best together and what should be shaken and what should be stirred!

We were treated to a great selection of cocktails and ‘mocktails’ (non-alcoholic), including the delicious Irish Smile!

What a great night- and a good excuse to catch up with fellow food and drink fans!
