Meet Nely Ajala, a 52-year-old from Revere, MA (02151). She recently took part in the "Bartending & Mixology 201" program, designed for those looking to change careers.
During her hands-on at-home lesson with master bartender Jakub T. from Boston, Nely learned to make over 30 popular drinks, including the classic Margarita, refreshing Cosmopolitan, and the smooth Old Fashioned. She loved the personalized approach, especially the one-on-one lessons that allowed her to practice in her own kitchen.
