It was a great experience! The last cocktail was my favorite. I love how Brett can blend flavors that one wouldn't think would work, but they do! I would definitely take another class again! Bravo!

We had such a great experience with Brett as part of our pre-Bachelorette festivities!
He was very patient with our loud group over Zoom and gave us some great tips to become more comfortable making more complex - yet manageable - cocktail recipes.
Many of the attendees said that they would definitely be making the cocktails again!
Thanks again, Brett!

Keleisha Chavis .
12/04/2022
Great information and energy. Very knowledgeable and fun experience. My only issue would be that two of the four drinks were not to my liking and now I have about three bottle of not so cheap alcohol I will never use. It would be better if you could choose the drinks you want to learn to make.
Tanya Myers .
12/03/2022

Brett was great, we learned a lot. He handled it very well as our group struggled being in the same room together and the reverb would not go away. He deserves more than 5 stars for that as well as the rest of the quests. Next class we will get it right.
Matthew S.

Pre-class, Brett had great communication, quick responses, and was super helpful. Class itself was awesome, which means an awesome instructor. He was knowledgeable, got us all talking, and was cool and collected when a tech issue arose.
What else? What else what else what....else............................Oh yeah! The drinks!!
We attended the "Must Make Sensational Sips". Wow. Not a drink we didn't love. Perfect for the upcoming holiday season!

Ben was friendly, and hosted a really fun zoom. The drinks were delicious. Overall, a really fun time, already looking at signing up with Brett again.
Definitely recommend doing it with someone in your household because the Ingredients list can be a bit intense if you’re doing it alone.

I booked a private class with Brett as a belated birthday gift for my mom. We had a great time and loved ending with the margaritas!

12/27/2023
Communication isn't the key, the website and information isn't clear. You're booking a class with other people not just your group. I have mentioned on booking we were in Portugal, the times were confirmed automatically incorrectly for Portugal. We paid and didn't get the service. Messaged to explain the problem and ask for help and got no response. Doesn't care or have any empathy...
Cynthia M.

He went very fast. It would be helpful if he spoke slower and was more specific. For example he stated for add in 1 and a quarter. He didn't say the unit of measure.
Donald R.
05/15/2023
Class didn't personable......He kinda just went through the steps, but he didn't ask if everyone was keeping up.....so I just followed the recipe to keep up.
David K.

Brett’s class left us with a lot to be desired. We took the romantic drink making class for a fun Valentine’s date and left feeling underwhelmed. The ingredients did not match the list that was provided and the steps were given briefly. The instructor was hard to hear and when asked about accommodating he informed them that he could not instead of moving closer to the microphone. We have taken plenty of cozy meal drink classes before and we have thoroughly enjoyed the rest. In addition to the class needing structural work, the drinks were tolerable at best.
Andrea B.
02/11/2023
Brett was nice but I would like to leave some constructive criticism. I’m in sales so a few tips may make his class better. First introduce yourself and maybe start with small talk with your participants. I know none of us could hear you. Everyone was on top of their computers trying to hear you. Participants left and had to charge devices hoping to hear you better. Your volume was low because you were on a head set. Read the room and try to fix it. Also you were speaking while you were blending, we definitely could not hear you at all. This was our second experience with a mixologist on line. The other class was definitely more interactive and I felt a connection. A few tweak and this class could be amazing. Maybe ask to see what participants created.

Brett is knowledgeable but the audio was bad. Very difficult to hear what he was saying.
Mark K.
01/14/2022
Brett seemed like a good teacher, but I found the audio was very scratchy and difficult to hear for this class. I checked with another member of the class, and they had the same issue. I brought this to the attention of Cozymeal but didn’t expect much of a response. Thankfully they took my concern seriously and worked to make it right. I have booked another class.
