Melbourne’s Wildly Popular Espresso Martini Festival Returns Tomorrow

The Ascot Lot never fails to deliver on themed day festivals (who remembers Pooches and Prosecco?), and the latest to return after Melbourne’s lengthy lockdown is Espresso Yourself—no prizes for guessing what’s being celebrated at this one.

On the bill is espresso martinis, and lots of them, everywhere. You’ve got five exclusive options to choose from which are made just for the day, with highlights including the Bounty Hunter, a caffeine-driven coconut number, and the expectedly minty Mint Like You espresso martini. 

Those showing some sort of restraint can try one for just $12, while anyone wanting to charge right up can try a flight of five full espresso martinis for $45.

It’s not a festival without a DJ though, right? Never fear, they’ve called in several to throw down vibes throughout the day.

The Espresso Yourself festival kicks off at 12pm and runs until 9pm on Saturday 26 March at The Ascot Lot.

There’s also a Garlic Bread festival hitting Melbourne. Scope it out here.
