Who doesn’t love a good cocktail (if you don’t, what’s wrong with you?). Be it a Bellini (my personal favourite), or if you’re in a brooding mood for a martini a la Bond to be shaken not stirred, it seems as if there is a cocktail for every occasion.

I am chuffed to bits to offer my readers a pair of tickets to the hottest aperitivo masterclass in town (either 25th or 30th August). I can’t think of a better way to spend a bank holiday weekend, can you?

It’ll be an informal, fun and informative session hosted by owner of new Italian Café Bar, Bassano Bar @ PizzaExpress, Dave Marsland on First Street, Manchester.

Lucky winners will be given a warm welcome and handed an Italian styled drink upon arrival. This will be followed by an exciting look into the Italian flavours, including fresh lemons, almonds, oranges, juniper and spices. I think this is a great way to learn more about different flavours.
TEST
With Italian food being one of my favourite cuisines, I know I will expand my knowledge on Italian food and drink flights, which will be especially useful when I’m menu-planning for a special event next month (more on that later).
TEST
The exploration of grappa itself will be followed by a complimentary sharing board by PizzaExpress, their take on the classic Italian Antipasto.
TEST
To be in with a chance of winning a pair of tickets, you can do one, or all of the following. Yes you can enter as many times as you want, as each Retweet  and like will be counted as a separate entry. Note: you must follow me on Twitter, Instagram and like my Facebook page as the starting point. So, to recap:
This competition closes on Friday 18th August, so you have just over 1 week to get your skates on and get clicking.
TETT
Good luck!
