Edinburgh Gin Presents: Ready Steady Cocktail!

Edinburgh Gin presents Ready Steady Cocktail! - a fast-paced live cocktail challenge where professional mixologists face off against brave audience members!

Edinburgh Gin Presents: Ready Steady Cocktail!

About Edinburgh Gin Presents: Ready Steady Cocktail!

The experience kicks off with a welcome drink before two bold and unpredictable cocktails are mixed live on stage. The audience then raises their glasses and casts their votes to crown the winner. Quick, interactive, and hilariously unpredictable – it perfectly captures the spirit of Fringe.

Set in the heart of the city at the Edinburgh Gin Distillery, this experience fits perfectly between shows and makes a great recommendation for Fringe-goers looking for something different to do.
