Grapefruit Whisky Smash by Gathering Events

Whiskey isn’t just a winter drink, as our crew Gathering Events revealed with their whiskey and grapefruit infused summer cocktail when we asked them “What’s Your Pour?”

Gathering Events is a boutique bar service based in southern QLD, offering their personally renovated caravan bar and a range of pop-up bars.

They have always believed in the magic of events, and love working on a variety of special occasions such as weddings, corporate events and private celebrations. Their priority is creating old-fashioned good-times, with a fun and fresh twist!
