A cool change

NO FOMO 

Alongside its alcoholic range, Auckland-based Finery has a selection of booze-free sparkling cocktails. Our pick is the Ginger Green Tea Honey Mint and Lemon. These are more than just fancy sodas and will leave you feeling guilt-free all around, with no sugar and all-natural ingredients. Take this to your next party and leave the fear of missing out behind.

 BY THE POOL 

Award-winning brewery Cassels lets us take a trip away while not leaving our backyard deckchairs with the Tropican. This limited release IPA is described as Tropicana by name, tropical by nature. It is fruity and pale gold in colour, delivering bright, refreshing aromas and juicy tropical flavours. Try it with one of Woolston Brewery Bar’s pizzas or from your six-pack.

PERKY 

This ain’t a pre-mixer like you’re used to. The Neat Espresso Martini by Good George is as quality as you would get out on the town. It has bold coffee notes combined with hints of chocolate, making it smooth and creamy. This is thanks to cold brew coffee from Raglan Roast Coffee and small batched distilled vodka. Just cool, shake, and serve.

DON’T MISS A BEET 

Grater Goods’ Beetballs (pictured here) are the closest thing to a rich, saucy Italian meatball you can possibly muster – all the while being plant-based and ethically responsible. Flip and the team have an exceptionally delicious dinner menu for you to experience. No corners are cut when it comes to taste, and their Orbell Street location is home to a stellar wine list and everything you could want to experience in a plant-based restaurant. Want to give your culinary skills a flex? Try the beetballs at home; Grater Goods’ vegan pantry offers tonnes of take-home options for your next night in.
