Bottle of wine with the ladies? - Think again!!

At Stag and Hen Birmingham we always like to test out our activities to make sure we know what our Stag and Hens are getting and this time I have to say I really wasn't complaining at all.

Now my girlfriends are partial to an odd bottle of chardonnay on a Friday night as we catch up on the weeks gossip and plan for the weekend. So you can imagine their excitement when I asked them one Friday night to accompany me down to Revolution Birmingham for a lesson in Cocktail Making.

Located on BroadStreet an ideal location to start your Birmingham Hen Party, Revolution Birmingham is one of a number of vodka bars situated around the country where having a giggle is key and that is what we did.

In our group there were 8 of us so a 2 hour session was just enough time to fully enjoy learning how in my case not loose any of the alcohol and how Cocktail Making really is hidden skill we all have. (Well sort of)

On arrival your group are giving a sparkling cocktail followed by a shot to get you all in the party mood. Then the expert cocktail making bar staff entertain you with a bit of cocktail history before wowing you with their moves. Myself and the girls were then given the chance to wow the gorgeous barmen (I have to add) with our skills. Of which I am ashamed to admit were limited with a few. We were shaking those shakers like our life depended on it. Anyone watching us would have thought we had one to many cocktails that night.

To finish of the lesson we did the vodka train which I won't ruin the surprise by telling you what it is but a perfect finish to a fantastic couple of hours with my girls. We then walked away with a certificate as proof that next time we've had a few too many vino's and try to wow the fit guy at the party with our cocktail making skills we can actually say "Don't worry, I know what I am doing"

A perfect activity for any Hen weekend in Birmingham and not leave anyone out this really would be ideal for a Birmingham Stag activity to if you boys fancied learning a new skill to wow the ladies with.

After having a great laugh myself and the girls did however come to the conclusion we are going to leave the cocktail making to the sexy bartenders and just stick to drinking the cocktails. See what you think by checking one out at www.stagandhenbirmingham.co.uk
