Tanqueray Terrace

Overview

When the weather's fine, and you want to celebrate making it through another week of deadlines, meetings and emails, there's nothing better than sippin' a cocktail in the afternoon sun. So, we've got some good news: a new lush oasis has arrived and you'll find it right by the beach. Tanqueray has taken over Garden Kitchen and Bar in Broadbeach until the end of April. The Deck Bar in Garden Kitchen and Bar will be transformed into a botanical oasis, complete with foliage and hanging flower garlands.

And not only will you get to wash the work week away with some tasty drinks, you'll get to do it while also flexing your gin connoisseur skills. Yep, you get to design your ultimate gin and tonic here. Begin by selecting a Tanqueray gin — you'll have a choice of London Dry ($10), Rangpur ($11), Sevilla ($11) or No.10 ($13) — and one of seven tonics to pair with it. Once you've received your base mix from the bar staff, make your way over to the mini botanical greenhouse to pick some garnishes that'll complement it. You can opt for something fresh, like cucumber, lemon, lime and mint, or something spicier, like dehydrated orange, ginger and cinnamon — or get really experimental with rosemary, coriander or pepper.

If decision-making is not your strong suit, there are also some predesigned cocktails on offer — like the Rangpur Sour with Tanqueray Rangpur lime gin, green chartreuse and grapefruit and the Sevilla Spritz with Tanqueray Sevilla gin, Aperol, Davidson plum syrup and prosecco — for $16 each.

The Tanqueray Terrace pop-up bar is open on Fridays from 4pm–late and Saturdays and Sundays from 1pm–late until Sunday, April 28.
