Trade Shopping Bags for Rum Cocktails at Orlando's Vineland Outlets
An hour at Caribbean Moonshine's outlet-mall shop: taste a flight of island rums, then mix two cocktails of your own.
Caribbean Moonshine teaches this class inside its own shop at Orlando Vineland Premium Outlets, the outlet mall on Vineland Avenue. For an hour, a mixologist pours you through a flight of the brand's island rums, then hands over the bar for two cocktails you make yourself.
The brand's homepage frames its story around Prohibition-era Florida, when smugglers ran liquor in from the Bahamas and the Caribbean. Travelers mention history lessons along with the pours.
Plan on tasting at least six rums, though the flight count varies by source. The booking page lists six; the brand's own events page now lists nine. A traveler who went in February 2026 counted eight.
As of October 15, 2026, the booking calendar showed classes on the hour from 11:00 AM, with the last start at 6:00 PM, or 5:00 PM on the Sundays checked. Seats were listed at USD 40 per person, and one booking takes up to ten travelers.
Rum Mixology Class and Craft CocktailsOne hour at Caribbean Moonshine in Orlando Vineland Premium Outlets: a tasting flight of island rums, then two cocktails you mix yourself. Ages 21 and up with a valid ID.www.viator.comTwo Tropical Cocktails From the Brand's Own Bottles
The listing keeps the menu short: two tropical cocktails, made with the brand's own Moonshine under a mixologist's direction. Travelers fill in the details. A group in April 2026 made a Miami Hurricane and a piña colada, choosing the rum for the second. Another traveler wrote, "You get to pick the drinks you want to make."
Expect a say in what goes into the glass; two travelers describe choosing the drinks or the rum. On its own site, the brand files its cocktail recipes under flavors such as Banana Breeze, Key Lime Concoction and Passion Fruit Prohibition. One traveler left planning to make the drinks for guests at home.
Eat Something First and Leave the Car
This is a full-strength hour. A traveler who went in February 2026 counted eight rums in the flight before two cocktails, and by his own estimate that came to "a total of about 15 ounces of alcohol." His advice was to "have something to eat beforehand" and to take a rideshare onward. Another traveler put it more plainly: "You will feel drunk when you leave."
The listing includes the alcohol and nothing else. Since food isn't part of the booking, have a meal before you come. The listing also flags the class as not recommended for pregnant travelers or for travelers with spinal injuries. For the ride out, the mall lists its rideshare pickup by The Promenade, near the Information Center.
Look for the Shop Behind the Valet Stand
Caribbean Moonshine's shop is unit 240 at Orlando Vineland Premium Outlets, 8200 Vineland Avenue. The listing's directions put it behind the valet stand and next to J. Crew. Use the valet stand as your landmark.
The setting suits a break from shopping. One traveler called the class "a good break between shopping," and the rest of the outlets is outside the door when the hour is up. Under the mall's shopper code of conduct, open alcoholic beverages aren't allowed outside designated areas, so don't plan on carrying a drink into the outlets. Instruction runs in English or Spanish.
Who Can Book: Age, Solo Seats and Access
Every guest needs to be 21 or older and show a valid ID; the listing sells adult tickets only.
Solo travelers can book. The listing accepts a single traveler and does not cancel for low numbers, while the brand's own events page lists a two-person minimum for the class. A traveler on a solo trip in August 2026 wrote that she "was the ONLY person booked" for her time slot, and the class went ahead with just her.
On access, the listing ticks wheelchair access for all areas and surfaces. The same list says infants can ride in a stroller, on a class for 21 and over. Treat those ticks as defaults. The brand's tours page says nothing on access; its listed phone line is +1 (407) 728-3825.
📍 Caribbean Moonshine, unit 240, Orlando Vineland Premium Outlets, 8200 Vineland Ave, Orlando. Bring your ID and a mobile or paper ticket. Cancel at least 24 hours before your start time for a full refund.
Book an afternoon slot and the hour ends with two drinks you made yourself and the rest of the outlets outside the door.
