Creating the Perfect Cocktail at The Locals

You’ll find us in the heart of Alice Springs, where our cafe and restaurant is renowned for our fun gin bar and a range of cocktails. So, whether you’re a cocktail lover or just dropping in for a drink after a hot day, we’re sharing our secrets to crafting the perfect cocktail.

The art of the perfect cocktail

We like to think of our talented bartenders as artists. The art of crafting cocktails involves a delicate balance of flavours, aromas and presentation.

Here’s a mix of how we create our signature cocktails:

Quality ingredients

The foundation of any great cocktail is high-quality ingredients. We use locally sourced fruits, herbs and premium spirits to give each drink The Locals flavour it deserves. 

The perfect balance 

Achieving the perfect balance between sweet, sour, bitter, and umami is what our bartenders do best. For instance, our popular Gin & Tonic is crafted with a precise ratio of gin to tonic water, garnished with a slice of cucumber and a sprig of rosemary for that perfect refreshing touch.

Getting creative 

Innovation is at the heart of what we do. Our team is constantly experimenting with new flavours and techniques to bring you unique cocktails and delicious foods that you won’t find anywhere else. 

Presentation matters 

We believe a cocktail should be as visually appealing as it is delicious. At The Locals, we pay close attention to presentation, ensuring that every drink looks like a work of art. From glassware to garnishes, our cocktails are designed to impress.
