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.
Today we launch our new 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 in and around the lovingly restored heritage cargo sheds on the Yarra’s edge, Melbourne Public on Dukes Walk sits on the banks of the city’s trendiest drinking and dining precinct, South Wharf. With interiors inspired by the 1920s industrial flair of polished brass, exposed beams and heritage features, MP ensures a memorable dining experience every time.
With live music on Friday night and at the weekend plus all the sporting action you crave and a large sun-drenched terrace, celebrate the best of Melbourne’s past and present in true Aussie style.
Mixologist Annabelle Barter recommends trying the Passionfizz cocktail to get things started…made with passionfruit kombucha, this drink has a fruity, bubbly taste without being overly sweet.
"It is refreshing, light and crisp, pairing perfectly with a day in the sun - whether it’s Melbourne sun, or real sun,” she says. "This cocktail is said to improve your health, wealth and overall happiness.
"Legends say that Passionfizz got its name from containing passionfruit and being fizzy.”
