SIMPLY SUMMER
Make this year one to remember with our guides to Sydney in summer.
Summer is undoubtedly the best time of year in Sydney. Each day comes with fresh possibilities for adventure, whether it’s venturing to a new place to swim, finding the perfect patch of grass to enjoy a long lunch with friends, or hitting a new rooftop bar for after-work bevvies. And it’s a great time to go beyond your usual beer or wine when you’re planning your next catch-up.
Together with Jim Beam, we’ve created the ultimate guide to spending summer in and around Sydney — whether you’re spending it at home, at a bar or heading further afield. And, if you want to shake things up, we’ve included recipes for three simple highballs to enjoy wherever you are.
