Sip the Season: Neyvine’s Guide to the Perfect Drink for Every Time of Year

At Neyvine, we believe that every season brings its flavours, moods, and moments to enjoy. Whether you’re after something crisp and refreshing for summer or a rich and bold sip for winter, our bar and cocktail lounge in Parramatta has the perfect selection to match the season. From signature cocktails to classic wines, here’s what to order to make the most of your time with us.

Summer: Refreshing & Light

When the temperatures rise, it’s time to cool down with bright, fruity flavours that are as refreshing as they are delicious.

• Mango Monkey Mischief – This tropical delight blends whiskey, mango, apple juice, and a hint of lemon for a smooth, sweet, and slightly tangy refreshment.
• Cheeky Coco – A tropical twist with tequila, lime, and coconut puree, this cocktail is like a beach holiday in a glass.
• Neyvine Fizz (Mocktail) – If you’re skipping the alcohol, this mix of pineapple, lime, mango, and passion fruit with soda water is a fizzy treat that’s full of flavour.
• White Wines & Sparkling – Light and crisp choices like Aurelia Prosecco or Ara Single Estate Sauvignon Blanc pair beautifully with summer’s fresh seafood and grilled dishes.

Autumn: Smooth & Balanced

As the air starts to cool, autumn calls for drinks with a little more depth while still keeping things light and easy.

• Peachy Booty – A smooth blend of vodka, peach puree, and cranberry juice, offering a balance of sweetness and tartness.
• The Last Straw – This gin-based cocktail combines elderflower liquor, strawberry, and rose syrup for a floral and fruity experience.
• Rosé Wine – The crisp yet slightly richer Marquis de Pennautier Rosé is an excellent pick for those in-between days.
• Old Fashioned – If you’re in the mood for something classic, this bourbon-based drink with bitters and sugar syrup is a timeless choice.

Winter: Bold & Comforting

When the temperatures drop, it’s all about deep flavours and warming drinks that bring a cozy feel to every sip.

• Seductive Henn – Featuring Hennessy, apricot brandy, and passion fruit, this cocktail brings a rich, velvety texture perfect for winter evenings.
• Burn The Bastard – A fiery mix of Sailor Jerry rum, Tabasco, and apple juice, this one will keep you warm no matter how chilly it gets.
• Red Wines – Full-bodied reds like Ziegler Hack Barrow GSM or Bremerton Special Release Malbec offer bold flavours that pair beautifully with hearty meals.
• Whiskey Selection – Winter is the best time to enjoy premium options like Maccallan 12YO or Lagavulin 16YO, best served neat or with a single ice cube.

Spring: Floral & Fruity

Spring is all about fresh, vibrant flavours that bring a sense of renewal and excitement.

• Blue Phoenix – Featuring ink gin, peach, and lemon juice, this bright cocktail is a stunning choice to welcome the season.
• Spicy Margarita – A zesty mix of tequila, habanero-lime syrup, and fresh lime juice brings just the right kick to shake off the winter blues.
• Sangiovese-Based Reds – Lighter reds like Gordon Ramsay ‘Intenso’ Rosso offer soft tannins and juicy berry flavours, making them a great choice for spring evenings.
• Iced Beverages – Our Iced Matcha Latte or Iced Coffee provides a refreshing boost without being too heavy.
