"I can't thank the Brooklyn Bartending School enough for their Job Placement program, and thanks to their connections, I landed my bartending job right after graduating, and I'm now confidently serving patrons at a top Michigan establishment.
Guy E., 25 from Ann Arbor
"As someone with a busy schedule, and the in-home lessons were the flexibility I needed. I learned to create signature cocktails and even had the chance to master the Michigan Flip, all from the comfort of my home."
Gal P., 26 from Ann Arbor
"The hands-on training I received during my lessons at Ann Arbor's Brooklyn Bartending School was incredible! My instructor, Ron, was so nice, and I'll never forget the thrill of mastering the Breeze cocktail in his class.

Learn The Most Popular Cocktails In Michigan
In the heart of the Great Lakes, Michigan, where the freshwater breeze meets urban energy, the Great Lakes G&T stands as a cherished libation in Michigan. Crafted with locally distilled gin, a splash of artisanal tonic infused with Michigan-grown juniper, and a twist of tart cherry, this cocktail pays homage to the state's abundant orchards and iconic fruit. Another beloved concoction is the Mitten Mule, blending local vodka with ginger beer and a drizzle of maple syrup tapped from Michigan's sugar maples, creating a sip that echoes the state's diverse landscapes. Garnishes like a sliver of candied apple or a sprig of wild thyme add a touch of local flair to the sensory experience, while sleek highball glasses or vintage mason jars reflect Michigan's blend of modernity and rustic charm.
Michigan's drinking culture, deeply intertwined with its craft brewing scene and lakeside traditions, is evident in cocktails like the Lakeshore Lemon Drop, featuring local vodka, freshly squeezed Michigan lemons, and a rim of sugar from the state's beet farms.
