Austin's at Serenbe

"Wellness community Serenbe, a 45-minute drive south of metro Atlanta, has a new cocktail bar and restaurant named Austin’s that pays homage to 1920s Paris and London. The beverage team uses botanicals from local farms, including their own, to create unique cocktails with floral and herbal flavors. Take the Equestrian, which is made with whiskey, Cocchi Rosa, Drambuie (a liqueur made from Scotch, honey, herbs and spices), Benedictine, bitters, and garnished with a lemon peel, or the Southern Beauty made with sake, St. Germain, creme de violette, peach bitters, lemon, and grapefruit. Absinthe, midori, and saline solutions are spotted on the menu, as well. Zero-proof drinks are available, along with a selection of beer and wine." - Allison Ramirez, Henna Bakshi

"Austin’s, a new cocktail bar and restaurant, will open on July 20 in the wellness community Serenbe. Inspired by the bars and lounges of 1920s Paris and London, it aims to offer a decadent experience with a focus on seasonal dishes and farm-to-table mixology. The menu includes oysters, caviar, snapper with burnt scallion, and a sous vide short rib. Co-chefs Tyler Braun and Jesse Sherwood lead the kitchen, while beverage director Cedar Meyers crafts unique cocktails using botanicals from local farms. The venue features a modern, luxurious design by Atlanta-based firm Rook & Dash." - Henna Bakshi
