Experience Details

Join our immersive class led by a bilingual chef to craft six authentic Brazilian cocktails, followed by a unique opportunity to savor your creations during a breathtaking sunset on the iconic Ipanema Beach.


Brazil is one of the big suppliers of party people, on par with the best. At the core of this fame are two things: great music and great drinks.


In this class you will learn six different Brazilian drinks that you can make for just about any event: from parties to celebrations to get togethers and romantic dinners, there will be an ideal drink you will make and taste.


After spending about 2 hours in our studio learning to make the six drinks, we will walk over to Ipanema Beach, two blocks away, two appreciate the sunset, with a drink in hand and sand under your bare feet.


Most guests call this a “Top 3 Rio experience” — perfect for those who want to feel the city’s energy in a fun, friendly, flavorful way.


* Must be 18 and over to participate.

Come thirsty and leave buzzing with good vibes! During this 3-hour experience you will learn to make six incredible cocktails that we are sure you will want to make forever! We will start off by meeting in our studio and eating some things to line up our stomach walls, so these drinks don't shake you... yet you shake them.

All our recipes you can replicate with easily found ingredients back home. We will taste as we make each drink but of course we will save two of them so that we can appreciate them while standing on Ipanema beach sand (the best place to drink is on sand, according to a poll of a million party animals). °Learn to mix 6 traditional Brazilian cocktails (like caipirinhas) °Tuck into 2 local appetizers during the session °Guided by engaging, fun-loving instructors °Cap it off with a sunset toast in Ipanema Beach °One of Rio’s most fun, relaxed, and social experiences
