Taste the Absolut Rainbow

Join sommeliers Mackenzie Putici and Renée Sferrazza for a fun Pride cocktail event, yes we said cocktails!! with Absolut vodka!

Taste the Absolut Rainbow

Eating Through TO owner Mackenzie Putici (@travelingsomm) and Wine Communicator Renée Sferrazza (@wine.by.renee) are two certified sommeliers, proud members of the LGBTQ+ community, who both happen to LOVE cocktails.

And since Love is Love :)

We thought we’d put together a special, lighthearted, cocktail workshop that breaks the stigma that sommeliers only know wine, while showcasing the colourful lineup of Absolut, and have a bit of virtual fun with a Taste the Absolut Rainbow cocktail workshop!

Proud supporters of the LGBTQ+ community for over 40 years, Absolut believes in the freedom to be who you are and love who you choose, and that everyone should be free to express themselves.

Join us for a fun, choose your own adventure cocktail workshop that will allow us to hop in and out of breakout sessions feature 2 versions of 3 classic cocktail making techniques:

  • A Modern Cosmo Martini

  • A Shaken Vodkarita

  • A Refreshing Fizz

Guests will receive ingredients for all 6 cocktails so they can make 3 for the event, and 3 for later or share the kit with a friend or partner for a fun cocktail event that's all about respecting personal choice and play!

Kit includes:

2 oz

Plus all the ingredients to make 6 cocktails and the colourful Confetti Popcorn from Toronto Popcorn!

First 12 sign ups will also get a BONUS Absolut Sparkling Mango Mule, a ready-to-drink for this summer's backyard bbqs and hangouts, provided by Special Guest Danielle Yoon (@corby_dani), Corby Spirit and Wine Portfolio Consultant.

PLUS an optional Rainbow Add-on with the Absolut Rainbow Edition, Created in collaboration with artist and activist, Gilbert Baker, one of the most prominent forces of the modern LGBTQ+ movement and designer of the original Rainbow flag back in 1978, Absolut's Rainbow bottle is a symbol and celebration of their long and strong support to the LGBTQ+ community.

We know Pride is a little different this year but we wanted to keep the Spirit ;) alive with a fun event all about breaking stigmas (somms do know about and LOVE cocktails), personal choice (pick your own cocktails), and FUN!

Please enjoy responsibly!
