Overview
With Vivid lighting up the skies of Sydney once again, the city is buzzing with ways to enjoy it. And, you can bet your bottom dollar that Belvedere, creator of the luminous bottle, is getting involved. The premium vodka label has partnered with a bunch of bars across to Sydney to serve up a slew of glowing cocktails that'll brighten up your Vivid visit. With each venue offering up something unique, you've got until the end of the festival to try 'em all.
At the heart of the celebrations, the Sydney Opera House's Portside bar is offering up two fresh libations that'll make for great pre-drinks, before you dance the night away at a nearby live music event. First up, there's the Winter Tropical Warmer — a warming mix of honey, pineapple and bitters — and the Blinded by the Light, which features pear, lavender and lemon.
If you'd rather be on the water than staring out at it, you can jump on a private (or shared) All Occasion Vivid cruise and see the harbour sights with a luminous cocktail in hand. Once you're back on land, head to the Shangri-La Hotel's Blu Bar or Helm Bar in Darling Harbour for an illuminated twist on a vodka spritz, featuring sweet vermouth, tonic and star anise, alongside an in-house light show.
Staying around the CBD, you can still get a view of the lights from the leafy oasis of Taylor's Rooftop, while enjoying a simple Belvedere vodka and mixer for just $10 or a more exotic rose and lychee martini. Finishing up there, head down to Grain and try one (or all) of its three vibrant cocktails. And, if you live north (or just fancy a ferry ride to catch some lights), make tracks to Manly Wharf Hotel for some tasty pub fare and the Wharf Lights Punch shared cocktail carafe, featuring blueberries, mint, lemonade and Chandon.
Belvedere's Vivid Cocktail specials will be available for the duration of Vivid, until Saturday, June 15.
