The story behind Coconut Arrack Highball
Batavia arrack is an Indonesian cane-and-red-rice spirit with centuries of punch history. Coconut water, lime and palm sugar give this house highball a distinctly Indonesian frame.
This is a Where It's Five house creation inspired by local ingredients and drinking traditions, not a historic national cocktail.
