SPRING COCKTAILS & BOBBI BOOTS
At our (WFH) HQ in Melbourne, we are raising a glass! We are so proud of our hometown and so grateful for the outpouring of love and support from our fellow Australians around the country. Thank you, everyone.
To celebrate the end of lockdown and the advent of warmer nights, we have pulled together some delicious and classic cocktails to keep you cool at home or to stir up at your next picnic. Because we also love a good pairing, we've matched each drink with its perfect Bobbi boot.
Enjoy responsibly!

- Add strawberry, orange & cucumber
- Finish with a sprig of mint
Method:
Fill a highball glass with ice. Top with Pimms, mixer, fresh fruit. Stir and garnish with a sprig of mint. A Pimm’s Cup (or Pimm’s Original) is great served in a carafe! Just increase the proportions to fit whatever vessel you are mixing it up in.
APEROL SPRITZ | Pair with: Bobbi Orange & Pomegranate
- 3 oz Aperol
- 3 oz dry Prosecco (or any sparkling wine)
- 1 oz club soda or unflavoured sparkling water
- Orange slice
1. Add a bit of ice to a wine glass.
2. Top with Aperol, Prosecco, and club soda.
3. Stir and garnish with orange.
With a 1 to 1 ratio, this yum cocktail is easy to scale up and make a larger amount to pour and serve a few people. You can make it less bitter by decreasing the Aperol, or adding more club soda. Enjoy!
