The story behind Kopi Rum Tonic
This house highball borrows the intense roasted flavor of Indonesian kopi. Aged rum and palm sugar meet its caramel notes, while tonic makes the combination crisp and aromatic.
This is a Where It's Five house creation inspired by local ingredients and drinking traditions, not a historic national cocktail.
