The Bols Cocktail Experience in Amsterdam combines the story of genever and liqueurs with sensory exhibits and a cocktail at the Mirror Bar. It is near Museumplein, so it can fit into a day around the museum district.
Choose between an experience visit with a cocktail and an option that adds a hands-on workshop. The standard Tiqets visit does not include a cocktail-making class. For a workshop, check its length, session language and number of drinks before booking.
