Native Cocktails - A taste of Australia in every glass.
Continue the journey through Australia’s native flavours with two cocktails that bring a distinctly Australian character to familiar classics.
Native ingredients shape each sip, creating two contrasting expressions that move between rich, earthy depth and bright, refreshing citrus.
Yarrai | $24
Rich and aromatic, Yarrai reimagines the classic Negroni with wattleseed-infused gin, sweet vermouth and Campari. Earthy notes of coffee and chocolate bring warmth and depth to the glass, while Geraldton wax and saltbush complete this distinctly Australian interpretation.
Purran | $24
Bright and refreshing, Purran gives the classic gimlet an Australian twist with lemon myrtle-infused gin and house-made lemon and lime cordial. Finished with delicate finger lime pearls, each sip delivers a vibrant citrus character with a refreshing finish.
Date: 31 August 2026 - 29 November 2026
Times: 11:00am - 4:00pm
