This class utilizes the methods and theories of libation generation to help students design and pursue innovative beverage creation. Students will use an array of techniques such as mixing, shaking, and pouring to explore the benefits of collaborative and participatory research. Throughout the course, our goal is to better understand the strengths and limits of Purple Cocktails (and Mocktails) while considering how to improve our own mixology. Students will have the opportunity to create and present a final product.
