· Ginger Beer

Sydney can never have enough of her traditional Ginger Beer. Bundaberg Ginger Beer is born in Australia. No wonder, Sydney Christmas is incomplete without this magical drink! It is made from homegrown dried ginger.

Sugarcane and water are mixed with ginger. Next, the mixture is fermented with special yeast and other flavoured ingredients. Then this beer is passed through craft filters – and your drink is ready to be tasted.

Festive party-goers make a beeline for the famous Brookvale Union Ginger Beer at local pubs in Sydney. Among other varieties, Aether Brewing Ginger Beer is also quite sought after.

· Angas Muscato

A glass of pink, sparkling wine jazzes up the X’mas fiesta like none other! Speaking of wines, the magic of Angas Muscato is irresistible. An exotic mixture of tropical fruits flavours like musk, lychee and spices is used to brew the Angas Muscato. Sometimes, a pinch of sherbet fizz and strawberry gelato is added to the mixture as it's brewed!

Sydney Christmas cruises often include this popular drink on their list of beverage packages.

Indulge in the luxury of Muscato wines onboard Sydney’s classy glass boat cruises. The pleasure of enjoying 360° views of iconic Sydney landmarks like the Harbour Bridge and Opera House, drinks in hand, is incomparable.
