Hej, I’m Kim, part mixologist, part UX researcher, full-time believer in great drinks and better experiences.

I started Cocktail Lift because I believe cocktails don’t need to be complicated. You don’t need a fancy bar setup or obscure ingredients, just the right guidance and a little inspiration. That’s where I come in.

I host workshops and shake cocktails at events, helping people make (and enjoy) better drinks. Whether it’s in a mountain cabin, a wedding tent, or your own kitchen. With a background in UX research, I also happen to be a pretty great facilitator, making sure your group feels comfortable, included, and has a damn good time.

On the menu

  • Good drinks don’t need to be complicated

  • Mocktails should feel just as special

  • There’s more to gin than drowning it in tonic

  • The right cocktail can change the mood of a whole room

Shaken, not expected

  • Shook cocktails on Åreskutan in a mirror bar for Zalando

  • Mixed drinks at Imilla during the summer of 2024

  • Ended up hosting a cocktail workshop in Hong Kong, thanks to a last-minute event and a well-packed shaker

  • Learned to bartend in Mallorca, I just needed to figure out how to make vodka drinkable

  • Polished my skills the classic way: YouTube deep dives, obsessive reading, and making a lot of drinks I wouldn’t serve today. Now I bring the good stuff to your place.

The extra pour

  • I speak Swedish, English, and Dutch and can host in all three

  • Based in Åre, but if you give me a reason to cross the globe, I just might.

  • I travel light, but always with a shaker
