There are plenty of ways to describe Queensland in Summer and spirited is certainly one of them. In the midst of the scorching heat, the only logical way to cool off is with sensational sips.
Answering the call, Hinterland-based distillery, Sunshine & Sons, has introduced the Summer of Sunshine – partnering with six iconic Brisbane bars and restaurants to curate unique, exclusive gin-infused cocktails available through December and January.
Sunshine & Sons spirits are a little bit of everything we love about Queensland. Pot-distilled in a shed amongst the hinterland rainforest, gins are carefully curated with native botanicals and subtropical flora, creating bright flavours that make the perfect base for a summer cocktail.
Walter’s Steakhouse, Gerard’s Bar, Leonard’s Bar & Dawn, One Fish Two Fish, On Point QB and the Sandgate Post Office Hotel are all set to serve up two Sunshine & Sons gin-infused cocktails throughout December and January. The new seasonal menus across each of the venues are also not only appetising but bring out the flavour-profile of the cocktails perfectly.
