Science of Cocktails
Wednesday, January 20, 2010
7-10pm

The Exploratorium transforms into a cocktail laboratory at Science of Cocktails, on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, from 7-10pm. Guest mixologists from 15 Romolo, 83 Proof, Orson, Alembic, Annabelle’s Bistro, and other popular San Francisco bars mix delicious cocktails, while guests participate in hands-on science experiments about alcohol, inebriation, hangovers, cocktail creation, and more. Science of Cocktails presents the artistry of master mixologists shaken with the science behind the craft. Taking an in-depth, hands-on look at the physics, chemistry, and biology of cocktails, this first-time Exploratorium fundraising event engages guests in an exploration of their favorite libations like they’ve never experienced before. This event is sponsored by Meebo. And Marissa Mayer, Vice President of Search Products and User Experience at Google, is the Science of Cocktails‘ Honorary Chair. Ticket information is below.
