The Distilling Dames are back with a revamped program and partnership with Slow Food Boulder County!

Join this group of Femme adults on the second Thursday of each month for an eve of cocktails, bites, education, camaraderie, and discussion that aims to empower and enrich your experience of cocktail culture and the secrets and ways of the distillation process.

We will host guest speakers that cover a wide array of topics from the history, techniques, and preparation of the spirits and choosing ingredients, to the art, science, and nitty gritty that take place in the behind the scenes processes of what eventually ends up in your glass!

Slow Food adds layers of overlapping food culture principles, all in the name of Good, Clean, and Fair!

These drop-in meetings are $20 and include a cocktail, snacks, and guest presenters. Meetings are the second Thursday of each month, at Dry Land Distillers, from 6:30-8:30pm. There is the option to purchase an annual membership at a deep discount which also includes some extra special gifts and sips!

This week we will be celebrating peaches, plums, apricots, and the uses of these sweet dominating stone fruits in the world of cocktails! We will slice into and muddle their many juicy uses - from simple syrups and garnishes, to infusions and bitters. Learn tips for bringing fruit-forward flavor to your home bar, taste a lineup of delightful stone fruit cocktails, and mingle with community.

As a special bonus: we'll be making a homemade fruit fly trap to catch the pesky pests that fruit season can bring!
