We had a chat with Veni Jee from Indented Head Cocktails and asked her a few questions about her local cocktails and what inspired her to start her journey.
How did Indented Head Cocktails come about?
Indented Head Cocktails was born after we moved to the beautiful coastal suburb of Indented Head in 2023 and realised there wasn’t anywhere local to grab a quality cocktail. We wanted to create fuss-free, ready-to-pour cocktails for the community — unique, well-crafted drinks you wouldn’t typically find on bottle shop shelves.
What’s your go-to recommendation for visitors to Geelong and the Bellarine?
Head to Jack Rabbit Vineyard for one of the most spectacular views across the peninsula, then stop by Bennetts on Bellarine for a relaxed wine tasting — it’s the perfect way to soak up what the region does best.
How do you fill your cup in your spare time?
Long coastal walks are my reset button, especially along the Bellarine shoreline. I’m also a big foodie — exploring new restaurants and bars keeps me inspired and constantly dreaming up new cocktail ideas.
What’s your favourite product from your range at the moment?
That’s like asking me to pick a favourite child! But if I had to choose, it would be the Spicy Marg — our fiery twist on a classic Margarita with homemade hot sauce or Sawadee, a Thai-inspired cocktail that balances sweet, sour and spice with lemongrass and kaffir lime. Being Southeast Asian, I naturally gravitate towards bold, spicy sips.
