Easter Cocktails at Emporium

Overview

Emporium's Piano Bar glitters every day of the year, all thanks to its cascading gold and crystal chandelier, as well as its sizeable array of shiny black mirrored surfaces. Come special occasions, it doesn't need to do much decorating to sparkle as a result. Still, with Easter almost here, the luxe South Bank spot is serving up a special themed boozy beverage to get you in an extra-sweet mood.

From Friday, April 1–Tuesday, April 19, you can hop on in for Hot Cross Bunny cocktails. They combine vanilla vodka, applejack brandy, hot chocolate, cinnamon syrup and dark chocolate liqueur, and they're the $20 Easter treat that you didn't know you needed until now.

Timing your visit to coincide with the venue's regular live music lineup is recommended — hear pianist and live jazz from 5pm on Thursdays, 6pm on Fridays and Saturdays, and 3pm on Sundays.

And if that's not enough Easter-themed sipping for you, upstairs at The Terrace — yes, 21 floors up, and with striking views over Brisbane to prove it — you'll have two more choices. The Cold Cross Bun cocktail mixes spiced rum, cold butter and saffron syrup, while the Holiday Hopper goes with white cacao and Mount Tamborine Crème de Menthe.
