With summer in full swing, entertainment in San Diego only gets better. • At Se San Diego Hotel, it’s all about satisfying your sweet-tooth cravings. Throughout the month of July (aka National Ice Cream month), the Se will launch an Ice Cream Mixology program at Siren, its rooftop pool bar and lounge. Ice cream flavors will change daily and on Fridays from 3 to 4 p.m., and guests can take part in complimentary tastings so they can try out some of the fun flavor combinations that will be offered throughout the week — an eclectic assortment of house-made ice creams and toppings, all infused with alcohol. Some of the choices include root beer float, Guinness Stout, salty butterscotch with popcorn, mango mojito and bourbon glaze. • If you’ve ever dreamed of channeling Tom Cruise in “Cocktail,” here’s your chance. Every first Thursday of the month, Side Bar, 536 Market St., holds two one-hour mixology classes at 7 and 8 p.m. The classes get to have a maximum of 12 students per class so it fills up quickly. “It’s a lot of fun because students not only learn the history of cocktails, they step behind the bar and build some classic cocktails so it’s interactive,” said Isaac Krejci, bar manager. “We get married couples, single people and even people who have no bar knowledge, but it’s always fun,” said Krejci. $30 per person and $50 per couple, www.sidebarsd.com • Pirate wannabes can check out a new adventure — an 83-foot Spanish galleon pirate ship called Treasure Seeker. The 49-passenger ship, featuring a pirate-themed staff, offers several daily tours including a day cruise around the bay and a sunset excursion. Other highlights include private tours and customized outings on holidays such as July Fourth and during Halloween. The ship has three levels and is docked at the Cabrillo Isle Marina on Harbor Island, near the Sheraton San Diego Hotel and Marina. Arrit McPherson, who runs Pirate Ship Adventures, calls it a dream come true: “This is something I’ve always wanted to do and it just seemed like the right time to do it.” Rates start at $19 for children and $26 for adults. www.pirateshipadventures.com.
