Some companies use in-home shopping parties to get customers to spend on items like jewelry and Tupperware in the company of friends -- and a lot of alcohol. Diageo Plc is going straight to the fun by shipping liquor and bartenders to clients’ living rooms.

For 2,000 pounds ($3,300), the world’s largest distiller will deploy a bartender to make tiki-style cocktails such as Mai Tais and Zombies for you and 19 friends in your own house. Mixologists are also on offer for vintage cocktail nights, which promise hipster favorites like Negronis and Vespers.
