ORLANDO, Fla. â Pop-up bars are becoming a trend around the world, offering a unique experience and creative cocktails.
The catch is that theyâre only open for a limited time.
One Orlando bar is taking you down the rabbit hole into wonderland. Itâs called âThe Alice.â

âIt is sort of like dinner murder mystery show meets cocktail hour, meets hanging out with your friends. Itâs such a cool combination of things people arenât expecting when you come in,â said assistant manager Sarah Austin.
The Alice Cocktail Experience has taken over Oliv Bar off Magnolia Avenue in Orlando for a limited time.
The show takes you into Wonderland with recognizable dĂŠcor everywhere you turn from the enchanted forest theme, to the âeat meâ treats and tea cups all inspired by Aliceâs Adventures in Wonderland book.
The infamous Queen of Hearts, walking cards and Mad Hatter join the tea party as well, working the room and interacting with guests making parts of the show spontaneous. Itâs something Austin said she enjoys.
âI can kind of riff on the audience a little bit, find out what makes people laugh and poke some fun. It makes each session different,â said Austin.

During the experience youâll study to get your diploma of tea making, solve riddles and collect the ingredients to create a tasty cocktail.
Youâll munch on some treats and get crafty, painting the foam on top of your drinks.
