Leonards Bar & Bistro, Brisbane
If you’re out and about after work in the Brisbane CBD this afternoon, you’ll do well to drop by Leonards Bar & Bistro on Mary Street. The bistro is offering great eats at the bar — with a French accent — but the bar is doing some great things.
Like this cocktail, the Botanica: Melbourne Gin Company Single Shot Gin, Terres Rouge Aperitif Figue, Muyu Vertiver Gris, bush honey and strawberry gum paint. Delicious stuff.

The Barber Shop, Sydney
It’s Australia’s premier gin bar, an award-winning gin joint that offers great cocktails, great gin and good times (and a barber shop on site, too).
Your best bet this weekend: their Vermillion Cobbler, a long and refreshing mix of 2020 East London Dry Gin, PX sherry, Regal Rouge Lively White, rhubarb cordial, and lemon juice garnished with raspberries, lemon wedge, and mint.
