Drink Me | Sun Sparkle Sour by Waterside Hotel [Recipe]

Australian summer in a glass. That’s what this Sun Sparkle Sour cocktail tastes like. Developed by Sand Hill Road’s head cocktailer Kevin Peters, the recipe is inspired by memories of every mum’s tropical cheesecake; you know that no-bake version that’s only a pack of Philly cheese, a tin of sticky condensed milk and a bunch of biscuit crumbs away. In cocktail form, this is best drunk outdoors – if not in your own backyard – preferably on a rooftop (happily the new Waterside Hotel has just the spot). Don’t forget your SPF…or to call your mum later.
