Bevvies to appease the main characters (Leos) in your life.

Gird your loins, everybody, Leo season is upon us – may God have mercy on us all. Yes, those fiery loyal lions are about to have their moment, so step out of the way (for your own safety). Known for their passion, popularity and diva-like behaviour, a Leo is a real force of nature. Think of them as the Regina Georges, Miranda Priestlys and Jordan Belforts of the zodiac. Strong leaders who sometimes give off a bit of a villain vibe. Anyway, to help everyone else out in a Leo’s time of times, we’ve rounded up some bevvies to appease the lion zodiac, so we can all avoid the claws coming out.

1. Piña Colada

If there’s one thing we know about Leos, it’s that they love being the centre of attention. Sorry, but it's true. If there’s a centre-stage or an open mic, odds are they’ll be right smack bang in the middle of it. So, it seems fairly obvious that when it comes to cocktail choices, they’d want something that’s gonna turn heads. And what’s more impressive, more enviable, more “oooh what’s that?” than the Piña Colada. The Leos in your life will absolutely froth one of these bad boys. And look, has there ever been a moment when only one person in a group orders a Piña Colada? Absolutely not. It’s a trend. Once a Leo orders one, everyone else in the group will fall like dominos (all part of a Leo’s plan).

2. Dom Pérignon Brut Vintage

Have you ever seen a Leo have a bad hair day or cracked nails or not look full glam? No, no one has. Why? Because looking good and having expensive stuff is a massive Leo vibe. Think about some of the most famous Leos… JLo, Madonna, Obama? Come on. They’re never seen looking cheap. So, if you want to appease the Leos in your life, you gotta splurge on something worthy. Something like a Dom Pérignon Brut Vintage. The price is right AND it’s super boujee – qualities a Leo will just eat up.

3. Saint Louis de Provence by Estandon Rosé

Okay, perhaps we have been a touch too hard on our Leo fam. After all, they do have some good qualities once you scratch the surface. For example, did you know your lion friends are super protective and very reliable? They’re the ones you can always count on to save you from a bad date, pick you up after a night out (if they’re not there with you already) or hop in for a cheeky Maccas run. They value reliability, not just in their personal lives but in every aspect of life. Which is why a bottle of Saint Louis de Provence by Estandon Rosé (or any Provence rosé) is perfect. It’ll save you and your impatient Leo friend the fuss of browsing.

4. BentSpoke Brewing Co. Crankshaft IPA Cans

Look, we’ve said it once and we’ll say it again. Leos are the Regina Georges of the zodiac. They always look good, they've got big villain energy, but they’re still the most popular person in any room. And what do popular people love more than anything? Other popular people. Do you think Regina George would ever be seen hanging out with Kevin G? No way! It’s the same with alcohol. A Leo wouldn’t be caught dead with a beer that wasn’t ‘the most popular in Australia’ or at least an award-winning beer. So, if you’re heading over to a Leo’s house for a BBQ and they ask you to bring a six-pack of beer, make sure it was #1 in last year's Hottest 100 beers, AKA BentSpoke Brewing Co. Crankshaft IPA Cans.
