Choctails at Fosh

Overview

Go on, drink your Easter treats this year. That's what Choctails at Fosh is all about. The riverside bar and restaurant at Portside Wharf in Hamilton is still slinging seafood, of course — that's what it does all year round anyway — but it's also letting patrons sip their way through boozy versions of hot cross buns and creme eggs.

Ever tried a hot cross bun martini? You can now. It's made with spiced rum, cinnamon schnapps and vanilla liqueur, and costs $24. Prefer a creme egg tipple? For the same price, you'll be enjoying vodka, Baileys and pieces of crushed creme egg mixed together.

This four-cocktail menu is on offer from Monday, March 25–Monday, April 1, and also includes the blend of vanilla vodka, chocolate liqueur and cream that Fosh is calling the Smartini ($24) — and a Sunshine Splash mocktail made with orange, pineapple and strawberry juice, plus ginger ale ($15).

Every day over the break, the eatery is open from 11am — and yes, long weekends are all about boozy brunches, if that's when you want to tuck into the choctail menu.
