Escape to France this Summer with St-Germain
/
To kick off the warmer months, artisanal French elderflower liqueur brand St~Germain is popping up across Australia, bringing French elegance and a special Spritz menu.
The St~Germain festivities will kick off at the Sofitel Noosa Pacific Resort for Melbourne Cup, where decedent floral arrangements will adorn the venue and a quaint bicycle Spritz cart serving up St~Germain’s Spritz will remain throughout the month of November.
The French affair will also continue throughout Melbourne and Sydney this summer, with the St~Germain’s Spritz menu popping-up at a range of venues, names soon to be announced!
