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.
Welcome to our Cocktail of the Week series, where each Friday we will highlight a cheeky creation to tantalise tastebuds and set the tone for good times.
Contemporary Polish food and an extensive vodka list await discerning Melbourne foodies at Borsch, Vodka and Tears on trendy Chapel Street in Windsor. This Melbourne institution is styled after a Krakow cellar bar with a happening vibe and exotic furnishings, making it ideal for a first date, celebration or just a quick drink with family and friends.
With more than 220 Polish vodkas on offer along with iconic cocktails, this late-night go-to venue is the place to head to sample the Polski Zloto by mixologist Huon:
"Polski Zloto translates to Polish Gold and this is our take on a vodka Old Fashioned,” he says. "Crafted in oak brandy barrels, the unique blend of Starka Brown Spirit and Winiak Klubowy offers and intriguing mix of spices, plum and coca beans, perfectly balanced with a hint of sugar and bitters.”
Huon says this cocktail is the ideal choice for whisky enthusiasts who find themselves at a vodka bar!
