WHAT'S YOUR TIPPLE? HIT THE SPOT THIS WINTER IN SYDNEY, WITH OUR ROUND UP OF BARS AND BREWERIES

The change of season is slowly creeping up on us and how else to combat the cold than to cosy up somewhere warm, with friends or lovers and your tipple of choice!

We spent a little time exploring the suburbs in a bid to find a little spot for everyone, so you can be still be social whilst you hibernate.

For Cocktails: Scout Bar, Surry Hills

Scout Bar can be found at The Dolphin Hotel, through a secret door and a short climb of a staircase. It's perfect for intimate first dates, low-key drinks with colleagues or pre party vibes with your besties.

The cocktail menu is as mysterious as it's aura, with straight out of London's Matt Whiley, one of the world’s most recognised mixologists, creating concoctions to dazzle and delight.

Amongst the magic you'll find banana “wine”, (an intense banana, chocolate, nutty, fruit wine) and our favourite of the evening, The Espresso Highball, that quite frankly we could drink for days and never tire of it's taste!

For Tequila: Cantina OK, Council Pl 2000

Cantina OK! is potentially Sydney's tiniest bar with the capacity for only 20 humans to celebrate Tequila.
