Cocktail Menu: Shaken shots

by Molly Nicholas

“Cocktails are such an integral part of the vibe right now,” says Noel Jesberg, owner of The Rix Hotel. Situated in regional Queensland, the pub has become an integral part of Charters Towers nightlife. With a premium cocktail bar to quench the thirst for something a little luxury, Noel shares the recipes of his two ‘shaken shots’ that keep customers coming back for more.

“Our shaken shots are right up there, they are massive in our venue, cost effective to make and they’re good bang for buck for the customer.” Noel’s shaken shots include the decon-tini, a deconstructed espresso martini, and blue balls, a favourite among the bartenders.
