Mississippi Bartending Certification & Bartending School

In Mississippi, particularly in vibrant cities like Jackson, Biloxi, and Oxford, classic cocktails reign supreme. The Mississippi Mule, a regional twist on the Moscow Mule, combines vodka, fresh lime juice, and spicy ginger beer, typically served in a distinctive copper mug garnished with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. Another favorite is the Southern Belle, a sweet and refreshing mix of bourbon, peach schnapps, and lemonade, elegantly presented in a highball glass with a lemon twist. For a taste of tradition, the Mississippi Sazerac—a rich blend of rye whiskey, sugar, bitters, and a hint of absinthe—is often enjoyed in a chilled Old Fashioned glass, adorned with a lemon peel. Besides cocktails, locals also appreciate craft beers and robust Southern wines, reflecting the state’s rich culinary heritage.
