Fig season is now well and truly upon us now. And what better way to celebrate then with a drink in hand (especially one that celebrates the flavour of the fruit). Sydney's harbourside Catalina is evidently a fan of the fig, with the restaurant developing a fig old fashioned as a part of its limited-edition new cocktail menu.

1 dash Angostura Bitters
