Edinburgh’s wizard-themed bar, The Cauldron, is launching a Valentine’s Day version of their award-winning Potion Making Experience that will run exclusively on Tuesday 14 February. The Valentine’s Potions Experience includes a new brew-your-own potion: Cupid’s Cauldron. It’s a bright and dreamy invention from The Cauldron’s Magicineers and has lovers constructing a floral and bright vodka-based drink in a bubbling cauldron. Couples will sprinkle rose petals into a smoking cauldron and cast love enchantments into the haze.
For the final touches, potion-makers will garnish the foam-topped drink using a retro perfume atomizer, creating a magical brew to fill the heart with desire and tantalize the senses. Non-alcoholic mocktails will also be available. The 1hr 45 Minute Valentine’s Potions Making Experience also includes a glass of Prosecco on arrival; as well as another cocktail to create. Prices are £44.99 (approx. USD 54.76) for adults.
David Duckworth, co-founder of The Cauldron Co., comments: “Love is most definitely in the air in Edinburgh this February, and we’re excited to introduce a new love potion to the city. Valentine’s Day is one of our favourite times of year, so we’ve pulled out all the stops with the release of our newest cocktail invention: Cupid’s Cauldron. We wanted to make this year’s Valentine’s Day truly memorable, and have delivered a product that is amorous, fun, and delicious.
“It’s time to unbox your magic wand, dust off your wizard’s robe and make this Valentine’s Day extra magical. We look forward to seeing you on 14 February!”
A seasonal bar menu of molecular shots & cocktails will also be available and include shots like the Heartbreaker Shot and the Heartmaker Shot. It also includes signature cocktails Elixir of Desire (a bittersweet take on a classic), Philtre of True Love (something sweet and magical) or Red Ruby Slippers (sweet, fruity and a touch of class).
Hidden in plain sight beneath Edinburgh’s Frederick Street, The Cauldron is a cocktail bar, and also offers an immersive cocktail class, with tickets starting at £32.99 (approx. USD 40.13) per magical being. Alcohol-free, gluten and vegan options are available.
