2020 HAS BEEN A CHALLENGING YEAR FOR BUSINESSES AROUND THE WORLD, BUT THAT DIDN’T STOP ASSURANT FROM BRINGING THEIR EMPLOYEES TOGETHER FOR THEIR ANNUAL CHRISTMAS PARTY. HOWEVER, DUE TO ONGOING PANDEMIC RESTRICTIONS, THE COMPANY HAD TO GET CREATIVE WITH THEIR PLANS. INSTEAD OF THE USUAL IN-PERSON FESTIVITIES, ASSURANCE DECIDED TO HOST A VIRTUAL COCKTAIL MASTERCLASS WITH BARLAB PLUS, A LEADING COCKTAIL CATERING COMPANY IN LONDON.

THE EVENT WAS A HIT WITH THE 13 MEMBERS OF STAFF WHO RECEIVED A BOX WITH ALL THE INGREDIENTS AND EQUIPMENT NEEDED TO MAKE THEIR FAVOURITE DRINKS: LONG ISLAND ICE TEA, COSMOPOLITAN, AND PORN STAR MARTINI. EACH KIT WAS CAREFULLY CURATED BY BARLAB PLUS TO ENSURE THAT EVERY PARTICIPANT HAD THE SAME QUALITY INGREDIENTS AND EQUIPMENT TO CREATE THEIR PERFECT COCKTAILS. FROM SHAKERS TO SPIRITS, THE KITS HAD IT ALL.

THE VIRTUAL MASTERCLASS WAS HOSTED FROM BARLAB PLUS’S LONDON STUDIOS, WHERE THE PROFESSIONALS TOOK CARE OF THE VIDEO, SOUND, AND LIGHTING. THE STREAM WAS OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY, MAKING PARTICIPANTS FEEL AS IF THEY WERE IN THE SAME ROOM AS THE BARTENDERS. THE HOSTS WERE ENGAGING AND INFORMATIVE, TAKING THE TIME TO EXPLAIN THE HISTORY AND METHODS BEHIND EACH COCKTAIL.

TO MAKE THE EVENING EVEN MORE FUN, BARLAB PLUS ORGANISED A COMPETITION FOR THE PARTICIPANTS. STEPHANIE WON A COCKTAIL KIT FOR BEING THE FASTEST TO ANSWER THE COMPETITION QUESTIONS, ADDING AN EXTRA LAYER OF EXCITEMENT TO THE EVENT.

THE VIRTUAL COCKTAIL MASTERCLASS WAS A FANTASTIC WAY FOR THE ASSURANCE TEAM TO COME TOGETHER AND CELEBRATE DESPITE THE CHALLENGES OF THE PANDEMIC. THE EVENT SHOWCASED BARLAB PLUS’S EXPERTISE IN COCKTAIL CATERING AND DEMONSTRATED THAT VIRTUAL EVENTS CAN BE JUST AS ENGAGING AND ENJOYABLE AS IN-PERSON GATHERINGS.
