Cocteleria or Mixologia

Going to Mazatlan for the eclipse and our hotel has both of these on their menu. What's the difference?

How are those 2 things listed on the menu? As sections of the menu or as offerings? It doesn't really make sense, because cocteleria translates as "c-cktail", which would be a menu section, but mixologia refers to the study or art of mixing drinks.

How about a simple English answer? I am a bit tired to copy and paste all that into Google Translator. Thank you!

Post a link to the menu so we can see context

As much as I'd rather not follow links either, the article did give me an opportunity to improve my still-faltering Spanish. It basically says that mixology is an extension of c_cktail creation that allows for innovation of otherwise classic recipes. It elevates a pedestrian bartender to the equivalent of a master chef. To me it means $15 margaritas.

How about an oyster shooter? A little of both.
