MUCHO Tequila Trail
Who doesn’t love free tequila?!
World Tequila Day is July 24, and we’re celebrating it all week with Sydney’s free & first ever Tequila Trail!
To celebrate, we’re inviting you all to join the trail as we pour tequila on the house at Centro 86, Cantina OK! and Tio’s.
The trail features a trio of Herradura tequilas to try: Herradura Plata Tequila at Cantina OK!, Herradura Reposado Tequila at Tio’s, and Herradura Añejo Tequila at Centro 86.

Bar Planet’s 3rd Birthday
What a night!!
An absolutely endless thank you to Onnie O’Leary for running a pop-up BP tattoo parlour in the bar!
Many Dirtini martinis were consumed. Many olives were tattooed. I hope you had a slice of the Freddo Frog Ice Cream Cake. Those things are elite. So much nostalgia.
Tio’s Hollywood Quarter LA Takeover
The East LA Chia and Cucumber Marg. Tequila, Lime, Cucumber and Chia. A boozy take on the cucumber and chia fresca Cali street vendors serve in summer.
As part of the Hollywood Quarter’s LA Takeover, we also had a special Boyle Heights 7 Spice Guacamole available!

Tequila, Mezcal, Iramusu, Lime, Pineapple, Silvertip Bitters.
Inspired by his recent trip to Sri Lanka and Sunset Shift at the incredible Smoke & Bitters, Jax created a weekly special built around the Iramusu and Silvertip Tea that was passed onto Jax as a parting gift.
Cantina OK! x Evi O
We collaborated with self-taught artist, designer, author, and publisher Evi O, the creative force behind beloved Sydney design studio, Evi-O.Studio.
Evi’s practice explores the concepts of optimism, joy, and metamorphosis in the world we live in, often expressed through her use of colour and abstraction, in both 2 & 3 dimensional forms. For this special we ran her iconic pastel piece, ‘A Laissez-faire Attitude’, through the liquid Cantina OK! lens.

Cantina OK! launches a collaborative Weekly Special cocktail with Australian brand, Maison Balzac, to celebrate their iconic Chilli Gobelets! Try the Spicy Watermelon Margarita before it’s gone, or learn how to make one at home below!

Bar Planet x Froomes
Listen up, dear and valued associates. This week we have incredible news. It is truly our honour at Bar Planet to announce our latest quality of life initiative:
The Froomesworld Scorpino™ 👽
Sour Apple Sorbet, Vodka, a Raspberry Gel drizzle and Prosecco - consider this a Jolly Rancher super smasher from the outskirts of yonder itself.
In life, people often set their sights on major ambitions like starting a family and getting a mortgage in Erskineville, hitting 'Checkout' on SSENSE without crippling post-purchase guilt, successfully parallel parking in front of everyone at Soulmate on a Saturday morning, or even just paying off that thicc HECs sausage. Well, for us, this one is at the absolute TOP of our list. Inter-planetary alignment with AN ICON.
