A Taste of Temperance

A Taste of Temperance is Boise’s only Mocktail Pairing experience. Featuring local food, drink and music it provides all the experiential pleasures sans alcohol. Hosted by Free Spirits Beverage Company and Make Shift Happens this is an event for those interested in socializing and imbibing without alcohol - and for those interested in drinking flavorful and innovative zero-proof cocktails for whatever reason.

Featuring our three currently available ready to drink AF cocktails, we so lovingly call Free Spirits, married with locally sourced and procured small plates. Attendees will also have the chance to win ‘Build Your Own Bar,’ which includes Ritual Zero Proof alcohol free spirits, bitters, syrups, shrubs, rimming salts and more - essentially everything a person would need to build a quality bar set up at home, sans alcohol.

Hosted outside on the patio in the garden area at Fort Builder Cowork and Social Space - Collister, 5304 State Street, Boise.
