Overview

Maestros Cocteleros

What the activity is

Master Mixologists is a creative cocktail competition where each team creates their own proposal. Through various challenges, they obtain extra ingredients and resources, which they then combine to design an original cocktail. In addition to flavor, they must focus on aesthetics, naming, and the presentation before the jury.

How the experience feels

Each team transforms their table into an improvised bar. Some participants taste mixtures and adjust flavors, while others tackle challenges to obtain new ingredients or prepare the presentation. Gradually, the idea takes shape until it reaches the moment of defending the cocktail before the jury and sharing the final toast.

What makes it special

The activity combines culinary creativity, strategy, and presentation. It is not enough to prepare a good mixture; each team must create a complete proposal and decide how to utilize their resources to stand out from the rest.

Deliverables

Each participant enjoys two cocktails created by the teams. After the event, the client receives the photographs generated during the trials.
