The last in a 3-part summer cocktail series by Ten 01 is today! The classes, dubbed "The American Summer Cocktail Series: From Prohibition to Present," are all about the evolution of classic American drinks and are taught by mixologist Kelley Swenson (who just took 3rd place at the Mix Master's Cup last weekend!). Tonight's class:

Thursday, August 30, 5:30- 6:30 p.m. - "Reconstructing Summer Cocktails" will reintroduce the various foreign ingredients that the pre-prohibition bartender had at their disposal. Kelley will demonstrate how these ingredients can be used in a variety of modern day summer cocktails. Guests will also have the opportunity to sample original summer cocktails from the Ten 01 menu.

Cost is $20 and will include appetizers and up to six samples of cocktails created during the class. To register, call (503) 226-DINE. Ten 01 is located at 1001 NW Couch St. in the Pearl District.
