Forget crowded bars and tourist menus, this is Panama like you’ve never tasted it. Step inside a welcoming local home where Caribbean rhythms play in the background and from the very first sip, you know this isn’t a typical workshop: it’s a celebration of flavor and culture.

Guided by a host, you’ll shake, muddle, and sip 4 signature cocktails, from the zesty hibiscus caipirinha to the refreshing Panama mojito with Ron Abuelo.

Each drink is paired with a dish you’ll prepare and taste on the spot, it’s a hands-on party where every bite and sip tells a story. You don’t just taste food, you connect with the soul of a culture.

What makes this experience unique is how much you take home: new skills to impress friends and memories of one of Panama City’s most festive nights.

Guests consistently call it the highlight of their trip, this is your chance to “turn a night out into a once-in-a-lifetime story.” Reserve today, and let’s raise a glass together in true Panamanian style.
