The almost weekend is here.
And by Monday you’ll be reflecting back on the two days that you’ve just had and looking forward to next Saturday and Sunday.
If you need any help devising your weekend plans, here are just a few of the Newcastle cocktails that have caught our attention – we thought you may enjoy them too!
Newy Burger Co.
Frozen Caramilk Espresso Martini
459 Hunter Street, Newcastle
Newcastle Live, and plenty of other places that write about food and drink, were excited by this one. And for good reason. Home of one of our favourite burgers, The Stocko, Newy Burger Co. has taken the recent reboot of a cult chocolate bar and added alcohol. Genius!
The house-made Frozen Caramilk Espresso Martini is on for a limited run and we cannot wait to see what they come up with next.
Earp Distilling Co.
Aviation
41a Darling Street, Carrington
Everything at Earp Distilling Co. in Carrington is just lovely – you can read all about our first visit to the harbourside home of spirits here.
But this twist on the classic early 1900’s cocktail is stunning. It seems we won’t be hopping on a plane any time soon but pop over to The Island and this Aviation will have you flying.
Babylon Newcastle
Cocktail classes and events
145 King Street, Newcastle
You guys voted this your favourite cocktail venue in our poll just over a year ago and now Babylon is back!
The team at this stunning Newcastle CBD venue has released a whole host of cocktail events for you to get your mixology on, or sit back, relax and sip away. These are selling out fast so we recommend visiting their website to book.
The Koutetsu
New TK to your couch takeaway & delivery menu
555 Hunter Street, Newcastle
Ok, so this could be a little bit premature. More of a PSA but The Koutetsu have recently announced that they will soon be releasing a new menu for their suite of takeaway and delivery options.
If the knock-out quality of the TK VIP Experience we ordered from them a few months ago – including 3 pre-batched double cocktails of your choice – is anything to go by this is going to be GREAT. Find out more here.
The Greenroof
Ferrero Martini
71 Tudor St, Hamilton
This Saturday – the 25th, is Christmas in July and there is just something about the shiny gold wrapping that encases a Ferrero Rocher chocolate that says festivity. Enter the monthly cocktail special at The Greenroof Hotel in Hamilton, The Ferrero Martini.
This drink is a heady mix of Frangelico, Baileys, Vanilla Vodka, Crushed Hazelnuts & a Ferrero Rocher (of course!) and is available July only.
