Canberra is blessed with so many cocktail bars and restaurants. TheCanberra5 has collated 5 of our favourite cocktails. Let us know what you think in the comments below!
Alter Ego, 10 Bunda St, Canberra City ACT 2601.

Alter Ego offers tasty food and all-day cocktails. Down for a breakfast cocktail? Here is the place! They also have espresso martini’s on tap, utlising vodka from Canberra distillery Underground Spirits and local Bellerophon Coffee. Miguel had the opportunity to sample a few of the cocktails and he was a big fan of the delicious Coffee Caramel Martini. His other fave cocktail was the Bellini, so simple and delicious! We hear their Eggs Benedict bar is awesome as well. Breakfast cocktails and Eggs Benny? Hell, yeah!
Momoda, Melbourne Building, 39-47 Northbourne Ave, Canberra City ACT 2601.

The food is outstanding (hello kangaroo spring rolls and cheeseburger dumplings!) and their cocktails are incredible. The Leng Lui (Beautiful Lady) cocktail is the perfect blend of sweet with a touch of sour. A delicious combination of vodka, lavender and rose water, lychee liqueur, and elderflower makes this one cocktail that goes down very (too?!) easily! The freeze-dried hibiscus also adds a pretty touch.
Howling Moon, Canberra Rex Hotel, 150 Northbourne Ave, Braddon ACT 2612.

First Edition Restaurant and Bar, Novotel Canberra, 1/65 Northbourne Ave, Canberra City ACT 2601.

First Edition is located at the lovely Novotel Canberra– with a light rail stop conveniently out the front! First Edition is a gorgeous bar, with luxurious velvet seating and comfortable lounges- perfect to settle into for the evening! A spot by the window gives you great views of Canberra’s nightlife. Not only does First Edition have their own gin (created with The Canberra Distillery), they also have a signature cocktail featuring this very said gin! The First Impression cocktail is finished with fresh passionfruit, ice and clapped basil – so refreshing and tasty! If you’re not a fan of sweet cocktails, this is the one for you.
Kokomo’s, 1 Genge St, Canberra City ACT 2601.
