What past students are saying...

  • Lucie

    I immensely enjoyed the course; it was full of valuable and new information.

    I loved the mixture of reading, downloading and video material; it made for an easy and exciting study. Having the quizzes at the end of each module pushed me to remember the information I was writing down and is an effective way to raise my study level.

  • Kinsey

    As someone who learned most of what I know about mixology and cocktail making while winging it on the job, this course was a great way to learn and feel more confident in my skills.

    It was the perfect amount of information and practical skills needed to give excellent cocktail service onboard. I'm very happy I took this course!

  • Grace

    I learned the types of alcohol, the history of drinks, drink recipes, and everything I need to know to stock and run a bar while making guest drinks properly! I am a visual learner, so the demonstration and text on the screen were very helpful.

    A fabulous course highly beneficial for any yacht stew and chefs!

Chief Stew feedback...

"A highly beneficial and well-thought course! In particular, the advice on how to create more efficiency onboard with your cocktails was helpful to hear alongside the rest of the information. Would definitely recommend to any stewardesses that are looking to increase their mixology knowledge!"
