EatingOxford: Derby Day Mixology Class at The Coop

The Coop at Graduate Oxford.

This Saturday is Derby Day! Ladies, grab your biggest Derby hat, and fellas, don your best bow tie, for the Kentucky Derby Mixology Class at Graduate Oxford’s rooftop bar The Coop at 400 North Lamar Boulevard.

Mint Julep

Starting at 3 p.m. May 7, celebrated Oxford bartender Chip Moore will teach you how to create three Derby-inspired cocktails—a Mint Julep, Tommy Franklin Original, and a Fall Transition.

Light bites from The Coop are included in your $25 entry fee, and Kentucky Derby festive attire is highly encouraged.

Stick around to cheer on your favorite picks in the highly anticipated Run of the Roses race! (See which horses are in the running at kentuckyderby.com.)
