Dining out wouldn’t be complete without a drinks menu to quench thirst and complete the meal. Whether it’s a cocktail list, wine list, or a non-alcoholic beverage menu altogether, drinks are a key part of a restaurant’s menu.
Fine dining establishments like Merah Putih offer an extensive alcohol selection – from international wines, strong spirits, to delicious cocktails.
As part of a modern Indonesian menu, Merah Putih’s signature cocktails show off local ingredients and utilize the diverse flavours of the archipelago. Here are just three of the best drinks from the cocktail list.
Virgin Coconut Mojito
For a non-alcoholic drink, opt for the Virgin Coconut Mojito. This refreshing beverage is a blend of lime, mint, and water from one of Bali’s most sought-after fruits: the young coconut. Order this mojito to add a bright, slightly tangy taste to your lunch.
Lychee and Citrus Martini
Consider this drink the island’s take on a classic cocktail. While common martinis feature vodka or gin for the spirits’ clarity, Merah Putih’s version uses citrus vodka for a more zesty taste. This flavoured spirit, along with Campari, lychee, and citrus, make for a strong but flavourful cocktail.
Agave Gimlet
Another drink on the Merah Putih cocktail list is the Agave Gimlet. With tequila as the base liquor and grapefruit cordial to balance it out, this beverage marries iconic Mexican and Indonesian flavours. You’ll also get hints of maraschino liqueur and lime bringing all the ingredients together in a nice, chilled drink.
