Greek Cocktails on a Secluded Beach in Mykonos: Learn mixology from an expert

You make the cocktails yourself, not just watch someone else pour them.

Learn to make Greek cocktails on a secluded beach in Mykonos with an expert bartender guiding you through mixology basics. You'll shake, stir and muddle three drinks using Greek spirits like Ouzo, Tsipouro and Mastic, then enjoy them as the sun goes down. The experience runs two hours and works for small groups or private bookings.

The experience

This is a hands-on cocktail class, not a tasting or a tour. You arrive at a secluded beach spot in Mykonos and spend two hours learning the mechanics of bartending from an English-speaking host. The class covers how to stir and shake like a pro, and you'll make three cocktails of your choice: a refreshing Mastic drink, a fresh and lemony Margherita, or a Mykonian Aperol. Each one uses a different Greek spirit, so you taste how the flavour changes across Ouzo, Tsipouro and Mastic as you work.

The setup is a picnic arrangement right on the beach, with all the bartending tools and ingredients provided. You mix, muddle and mash your own drinks, then as the sun goes down you have time to enjoy what you've made, take photos with your friends and talk with the host. The recipes go home with you. Wear comfortable beach clothes and flat shoes. The location is isolated and the sand is uneven, so high heels won't work.

You can book this as a semi-private group or as a fully private experience. Either way, the two-hour window is built around the light and the timing of the sunset, so the day itself shapes when you'll be there. Ferries to Mykonos can run late, so plan for an extra 45 minutes to an hour beyond your scheduled arrival if you're coming from another island.

Top questions

What languages is the tour guided in?

Live guide in English and Greek.

What happens if it rains?

It may be canceled due to bad weather. If that happens, you're offered another date or a refund. Free cancellation up to 24 h before the start.

What Greek spirits will I actually taste and mix on the beach?

You'll work with Ouzo, Tsipouro and Mastic, three Greek spirits with distinct flavours. The class uses them to show how the taste changes depending on which one you're mixing into your cocktail, so by the end of the two hours you've tasted the range across all three.

Do I need any bartending experience to join this class?

No experience is required. The host teaches you how to stir and shake from the start, so you'll learn the basics and be able to show off your new skills within the first hour.

What's the difference between the semi-private and private options?

Semi-private means other guests will join your group on the beach. Private means it's just you and your party. Both run the same two-hour class with the same bartender and the same three cocktails you make and drink.

Can I bring friends or family, or is this just for individuals?

This experience is designed for groups: birthdays, hen dos, corporate team building or just friends and family gathering together. You book for your whole party, and everyone makes and drinks the same cocktails alongside each other.

What should I wear to a beach cocktail class?

Wear relaxed, comfortable beach clothes and flat shoes or sandals. The beach is secluded and the sand is uneven, so high heels won't work and you'll want something you can move in easily while mixing drinks.
