This cocktail workshop has a strong focus on interaction and creativity. From the moment you arrive, you are actively involved, learning by doing rather than listening to long explanations. The experience is guided by professional bartenders who use real bar techniques and share insider knowledge you can easily apply at home. Another unique element is the seasonal cocktail menu. Instead of a fixed or standard selection, the menu changes throughout the year, using fresh ingredients and flavors that match the season and the atmosphere of the moment. This ensures that every workshop feels fresh and different, even for returning guests. Located right on Rembrandtplein, the workshop combines high-quality cocktails with one of Amsterdam’s most energetic settings. The inclusive approach offering equally refined alcohol-free alternatives means everyone can enjoy the same premium bar experience together, making it a fun, social, and memorable activity in the city.

Wonderful Morning with Fusina

Our family of four -- twin 18 year-old boys and their 50-something parents -- had an absolutely delightful time with Fusina in her gorgeous home overlooking the canal. Absolutely everything -- the coffee, the cheese, the pancakes, the wine, the hospitality, the warmth -- was just perfect.

Skip the stroopwaffle shops and book this experience!

An absolutely fabulous and delicious way to experience this symbol of culture in the Netherlands. Not only were the stroopwaffles fresh delicious but we got to learn about their history in an engaging way. This is the best way to experience the wonder of stroopwaffles.

Brilliant afternoon

Diederik was our host this evening in the best quaint wine shop. The wine tasting room is in a hidden area and was very cool. He had so much knowledge and was truly passionate about his craft. We had a great afternoon. There was only 4 of us over all, it was very personal and relaxed. The tasting went on for a couple hours and it was a very lovely afternoon out of the snow. Wines were great, would recommend.

Local insights and fun experience!

My daughter (14) and I had a lovely morning with Fusina making pancakes. She warmly welcomed us into her cozy home. We had a great time learning to make Dutch pancakes - one with caramelized apples and the other with crisp bacon. We enjoyed learning about Dutch culture, customs and food. Fusina also prepared other delicious traditional foods for us to try. We would highly recommend this experience.

Amsterdam Bols Cocktail Experience and Cocktail Workshop

Joshua_D, Jun 2025

Fun experience; interesting drinks; great bartender!

I had honestly forgot this included the Bols Museum/Experience as well as the cocktial making class, so that was a nice surprise. It felt a little bit like the Johnnie Walker Scotch experience (if you've been), in that it was partly interactive, allowing you to do a "sensory" room and smell many different ingredients, which made it fun. At the end, you get a drink and then, during the cocktail making course, you make two more. So definitely don't arrive on an empty stomach, ha. It was interesting to hear the history of J/Genever, as I had honestly not heard about it until coming here (and I am a big cocktail person). Jennifer was our bartender and she was fanstastic, being patient and kind when half the class did not follow instructions correctly, and making sure everyone had a great time. I have been to other places throughout europe that do a "cocktail making course" and those have been pretty "meh" - often times just replicating a few drinks from "Sex and the City;" this felt like a unique experience using unique ingredients, so it was a lot more fun.
