Technically, it’s not drinking alone if the bartender is there!
You know the drill…it’s Friday afternoon and time to relax after a long and stressful work week.
What better way to chill out than with a cocktail at your favourite bar or restaurant? Alternatively, you could take the party home and concoct the perfect drink to usher in the weekend.
Welcome to our Cocktail of the Week series, where each Friday we will highlight a cheeky creation to tantalise tastebuds and set the tone for good times.
Set on the waterfront in Rose Bay, Catalina on Lyne Park is an Australian culinary icon. Owned and operated for more than 30 years by the McMahon family, this Sydney restaurant has built a reputation for its effortless luxury and uniquely Australian approach to dining. With sweeping views of the harbour, this is a destination synonymous with chic coastal style where every table has a stunning view.
Mixologist Alessandro Cavaliere brings to the bar his cocktail creation, the Cucumber Cooler.
Made with Bacardi Carta Blanc and Cartron Peach, this is a very refreshing cocktail to be drunk before lunch or dinner, or at the end of your meal as a palate cleanser. It is exactly what you want on a warm sunny day.
"After you have finished the cocktail, the garnish is there ready to be eaten for all the cucumber lovers,” Alessandro suggests.
Cin-cin!
