Anyway to tell jdbc to use server timezone?

I originally asked a question about adjusting timezone per db back

And it was suggested that I set them per db, which I have. But now moving
to
9.3 of the jdbc driver, it seems to set the timezone to the web server's
timezone.

I have found mentions

and

My question here is is there a way to disable it and get the older
functionality? Is there a command I could run after I get the connection
to say "set timezone = 'server default'"?

Thanks
