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.
Bar Planet “I Want To Believe” Merch Launch
Congratulations, you have finally uncovered the truth.
The “I Want To Believe” Olive Shirt was inspired by some fellow UFO-obsessed brethren. I love you Agent Mulder and Scully.
Bar Planet “UFO” One of Ones Merch
Tom DeLonge was right and we were wrong all along (leave a 🖖 in the chat)
We’ve been deep in the UFO-conspiracy-hole getting lobotomised by the internet, and we decided to make a limited run of fried merch to mark the occasion. In fact, it’s so fried we decided each shirt should only be printed once.
Please don’t beam me up, I’m scared of heights.
Cantina OK! x Mick Molloy
With this week’s special we are honouring mullet connoisseur and Cantina OK! fan Mick Molloy with his very own Coconut Margarita.
Making things extra-special is the edible wafer that will be served with each drink, emblazoned with Mick’s noggin sporting a mullet not too dissimilar to that of our very own Storm Evans.
Thanks to the Triple M Breakfast crew for heading down to Cantina OK! to try the drink and for all the love they’ve shown the bar on air.
Cantina OK! in Mexico
Our beloved Jax visited Mexico to source new mezcal for Cantina OK!
Bar Planet’s 2nd Birthday!
Bar Planet turned 2!! And we celebrated with a truly diabolical olive themed cake!
Bar Planet x Pseushi Merch in Heartbreak High!
We’ve made it to Netflix. Shoutout to the Bar Planet x Pseushi collab shirt for starring in season two of Heartbreak High! Are we officially Gen Z now?
Tio’s Mega Marg Launch
Introducing our Mega Margarita. It's like our classic marg, but bigger. Way bigger. Four times as big to be exact. It's as big as your head! 🫢
Cantina OK! 5th Birthday
5 Years of Cantina OK! Just like that, 5 huge and wonderful years of hand-made and hand-squeezed in the garage. And to celebrate the wonderful occasion, we re-launched our greatest hits: the Colada OK!, Teal, and Ube Sour all made a return to the menu!
We asked you all for your favourite drinks from the past, and you answered! We served up the crowd favourites with our 2024 goggles on, ready to celebrate another 5 years of the Micro Mezcal Mecca.
Bar Planet UFO Menu Launch
Unexpected Flavour Objects explores the weird and whimsical universe of flavour at Bar Planet with the addition of the Martian, Brainwave and Roswell discoveries to the menu. We’ve gone extra, EXTRA terrestrial, like the parallel universe where Italians sip on margaritas in the plaza. Edges of reality.
Bitter-spicy aperitifs, creamy-dreamy citrus, sour-and-twisted cola conspiracies. Drinks inspired by Ancient Aliens, Lizard People, dystopian commercial farms growing fruit and veges underneath the city, and the elusive Ingredient X!
Bar Planet Skyscrapers
The perfect amount of olives in your martini.
Cantina OK! x Funskull
A truly fun collaboration with one of our favourite artists and a dear friend of OK!
Centro 86 Opening!
We opened a bar in a basement on Pitt St! Centro 86 is a whimsical Extra-Ordinary Margarita Bar that feels like you’ve stepped into another time and world! Thanks to everyone who came to check us out on opening night!
Storm Won Patron Perfectionists Australia!
Storm wowed the judges of the 2023 Patron Perfectionists Australian Cocktail Competition with two outstanding cocktails and took home the win! Now he’ll have a chance to represent Australia in the global finals which are to be held in Mexico 2024. Go Storm!!!
Cantina OK! Hats
Classic Cantina OK! hats for everyday!
Cantina OK! “OOZE”
The ‘ooze’ is the place where culture meets. It’s the space between genres, identities, categories and styles. The ooze is the forge of new ideas, the time before new rules are written and new morals are coded.
Bar Planet Merch-tinis
I think one of the best reasons to buy this shirt is to most likely get yourself featured on one of those Inner West-lord meme pages when you’re trying to buy a kebab or something. It also glows in the dark too which kind of slaps.
Cantina OK! Mezcal Index Book
The photos, stories and mezcals from the edge of the spiritual frontier. A photo book, and travel journal, documenting the origin story Cantina OK!.
The Cliff Dive U Up?
It’s midnight. You get the text. Wyd? I’m in the club hun, try again next week!
Cantina OK! World Famous 2.0
Secret stashes, spirit caches. Clay pots and police parties. Known the world over! An updated remake of the classic.
