Apple has been paired with whisky since as long as whisky has been paired with a mixer. This iteration was popularised in Sydney’s own Shady Pines, one of the world’s greatest bars. They came up with arguably the most approachable serve for a whisky and a mixer.
Every Whisky Sour cocktail is great but the addition of absinthe in the Rattlesnake gives a remarkably rewarding depth of flavour. We challenge you to not add absinthe to every cocktail in your repertoire now.
This whisk(e)y celebrates the best of our Single Malt and Rye Malt core whiskies - the slight herbal spice from the rye swims brilliantly with the chocolate notes of the Single Malt. We're enjoying it in Toronto
Make it your mission to tick these drinks off your list before the year is up. Gin, whisky, vodka and more - we've found a summer cocktail to suit every spirit.
The Rob Roy is a Manhattan with Scotch. Perhaps with an Australian Single Malt, Ned Kelly is a suitable nickname? Another infamous, albeit more local, outlaw.
A punch is a many-varied cocktail. One of the world’s oldest recorded drinks - it consists of several parts. Spirit, citrus, water, sugar and spices. You can completely experiment here, there are very few rules — you’re trying to achieve balance and deliciousness.
One of the all-time, if not the all-time greatest cocktail in recorded history. We’re immensely proud of how good our Single Malt Whisky is in a classic sour.
Three ingredient cocktails are great, mainly because it takes a certain kind of energy and bank balance health to source all the ingredients to craft a good Zombie. If you can reach for a couple of bottles and whip up something delicious then you’ve saved time and money. Here are some of our favourite picks.
With a little nod to Mexican chilli chocolate, the Aztec Old Fashioned is sweetened with Pedro Ximenez Sherry and agave syrup, with a hint of chilli spice to really bring out that nutty chocolate flavour. Decadent.
The Toblerone draws its inspiration from the well-known chocolate bar. Delicious, thick and creamy featuring Cacao Husk & Hazelnut Whisky, blended with Gelato Messina's Hazelnut Gelato.
Whether you’re isolating alone, with housemates or a whole family unit, creating drinks and your own home bar experience can be a great way to cut a bit loose, soften the edges and make a great mess while you do your part to keep the country healthy.
This drink is based on a whisky sour, inspired by the area around Sandigo, NSW. Lake Coolah is just to the north of Sandigo and the water feeds the local farms of hazelnuts, honey and citrus.
It’s not all signature serves behind the bar at Archie Rose. We’re quite the cocktail connoisseurs when you give us the chance. For our end of year wrap-up, we dived deep into stats to find the seven cocktails you couldn’t live without…
We've collated some of our favourite cocktails to imbibe in the newly assertive sunshine. These drinks all have one thing in common: they're effervescent in one way, shape or form. These feisty little numbers are right up spring's alley.
This spirit was meant to be turned into an Old Fashioned. Those warm, rich, chocolate notes are sent into a joyous overdrive. It sings with an orange twist, we’re quite partial to some walnut bitters too, have a play.
This is essentially the whisky Negroni. I know, I know, you probably haven’t heard of it before but now you’re mighty glad you have. It’s the Negroni for the evening, the Negroni for contemplation and introspection.
What could be more simple? Whisky and soda. It’s all too rare, but when it’s made well there are few sparkling drinks more elegant. It’s super dry, but this just brings out the accents of the whisky lengthening and highlighting its natural characteristics.
Let’s take a deep breath and dive into one of the most rewarding and richest of historic cocktails - the Manhattan - blessed be the fruit (cherry, lemon or orange twist).

Good Lord. Let us all take a moment and hold each other’s hands. Let’s take a deep breath and dive into one of the most rewarding and richest of historic cocktails - the Manhattan.
It’s arguably the greatest cocktail of all time, but then ALL cocktails are arguably the greatest cocktail of all time. And that is always a fun argument to have. Whisky, sugar, lemon and if you like froth; egg white. You can make this at home - it’s not hard, give it a go.
The Old Fashioned is a drink bestowed upon the world by the Americans. Like so much of the great cocktails of history; its roots are humble. Faced with a world of new “fancy drinks” some curmudgeonly drinkers railed against the modern drinking crazes, insisting they wanted an Old Fashioned drink - just hooch, bitters, water and sugar. And 150 years later not much has changed.
Drinking at home is not a guilty activity. Fixing yourself a cocktail, when you do it well, is all about giving yourself the same love and care as you would a dear guest. Many people often save the good gin at home for when a friend comes over, but that’s a waste of life. Dearest reader, you are utterly worth it. Treat yourself.
