Cocktails & Recipes

Recipes built around our spirits β€” gin, vodka, liqueur and brandy, all made here in Wooragee. Hit the 😊 if you make one.

Bushman's Gimlet
Cocktail Recipe26 February 2026

Bushman's Gimlet

Australian bush botanicals meet fresh lime juice. The Gimlet is one of the most honest cocktails ever made β€” nowhere to hide β€” and our Bushmans Gin wouldn't want to.

Wooragee G&T
Cocktail Recipe26 February 2026

Wooragee G&T

The one that started it all. Our Distillers Cut Dry Gin was built for moments just like this β€” crisp tonic, a ribbon of cucumber, and somewhere with a view.

Dave
Dirty Martini
Cocktail Recipe26 February 2026

Dirty Martini

If the G&T is our handshake, the Martini is our bow. Distillers Cut Dry Gin has a clean juniper backbone that stands up beautifully in a spirit-forward drink. Dirty or clean β€” your call.

Botanist's Punch
Cocktail Recipe24 February 2026

Botanist's Punch

Every good visit deserves a punch bowl. Two of our gins, hibiscus, fresh citrus and berries. Make it the night before β€” it only gets better.

Dave
Shed Sling
Cocktail Recipe23 February 2026

Shed Sling

Our take on the Singapore Sling β€” two Barking Owl spirits in one tall glass. The Cherry Brandy does the work of grenadine and Heering, but with more depth.

Dave
High Country Mule
Cocktail Recipe22 February 2026

High Country Mule

High Country Kick is a small-format spirit with a serious personality β€” chilli heat, ginger warmth, botanical complexity. The Mule format is its perfect home.

Dave
Hot Owl
Cocktail Recipe21 February 2026

Hot Owl

Hot Winter Gin was made for cold nights. This is how we drink it after a day in the shed when the Beechworth temperature drops and the fire needs lighting.

Dave
Beechworth Brandy Alexander
Cocktail Recipe20 February 2026

Beechworth Brandy Alexander

A Brandy Alexander made with our stone-fruit and oak Aged Cherry Brandy. This is after-dinner in a glass β€” the kind of cocktail you'd serve beside a fire in the Beechworth winter.

Dave
Cherry Sour
Cocktail Recipe19 February 2026

Cherry Sour

Our Aged Cherry Brandy is all stone fruit and French oak β€” it deserves the sour treatment. Silky, tart, gorgeous in a glass and dangerously easy to drink.

Dave
White Russian
Cocktail Recipe18 February 2026

White Russian

The Dude abides. Our Black Russian Coffee Liqueur turns this from a dessert-drink clichΓ© into something genuinely excellent. Don't skip the lightly whipped cream.

Dave
Black Russian
Cocktail Recipe17 February 2026

Black Russian

Two ingredients. Two of ours. The Black Russian is the kind of cocktail that asks almost nothing of you and delivers everything.

Dave
Wattle Cosmo
Cocktail Recipe15 February 2026

Wattle Cosmo

The Cosmopolitan gets a genuine Australian makeover. Wattle & Myrtle Vodka's native botanicals turn a classic into something that actually belongs here.

Dave
High Country Espresso Martini
Cocktail Recipe14 February 2026

High Country Espresso Martini

Our Black Russian Coffee Liqueur was built for exactly this. Pair it with clean Rye Vodka and a shot of fresh espresso β€” this is the version we make for ourselves.

Dave
Sunday Session Spritz
Cocktail Recipe13 February 2026

Sunday Session Spritz

Sunday Gin. Sunday afternoon. Veranda. Dog somewhere nearby. This spritz was built for exactly that.

Dave
Garden 75
Cocktail Recipe12 February 2026

Garden 75

The French 75 is a century-old punch with a long fuse. Garden Gin's floral, cucumber-rose character makes this version feel like summer itself.

Dave
Barrel Aged Old Fashioned
Cocktail Recipe11 February 2026

Barrel Aged Old Fashioned

An Old Fashioned made with barrel-aged gin is technically incorrect. It's also one of the best things you'll ever drink.

Dave
Smoked Tea Tree Sour
Cocktail Recipe10 February 2026

Smoked Tea Tree Sour

If any gin in our range demands to be in a sour, it's this one. Smoke, coastal herbs, a touch of salt air β€” meet fresh citrus and a silky egg-white foam.

Dave
Tuscan Sunset
Cocktail Recipe9 February 2026

Tuscan Sunset

Our Tuscan Gin was inspired by the Italian hills β€” rosemary, lemon myrtle, sage and juniper packed into one bottle. This cocktail is its natural home.

Dave
Bathtub Negroni
Cocktail Recipe7 February 2026

Bathtub Negroni

Bathtub Gin was made for this. The warming spice of our cold-compound gin makes a Negroni that's richer, deeper and somehow more alive than the classic.
