Where the Ocean Meets Tradition: Discover Unique Cocktails at Ocean Bar

Alila Manggis presents a setting where the soothing rhythm of the ocean creates a backdrop for a rich culinary and cultural journey at the Ocean Bar. Nestled along Bali’s serene east coast, this bar invites visitors to experience the region’s vibrant flavors through a thoughtfully curated selection of cocktails that celebrate the traditions of Karangasem Regency.

 

Central to the cocktail offerings is Arak, a spirit deeply intertwined with Balinese culture. Sourced from nearby Karangasem villages, Arak is distilled using time-honored techniques, embodying the essence of the region’s landscape and heritage. This local spirit forms the foundation for a range of unique cocktails, each crafted to provide a genuine taste of Bali.

 

Arak-based cocktails at the Ocean Bar offer more than mere refreshments; they serve as narratives in a glass. Inspired by the natural surroundings, each cocktail reflects the character of the land and sea. The signature drink, Arakasem, artfully blends the bold notes of Arak with fresh citrus and homemade falernum syrup, creating a refreshing libation reminiscent of a cool ocean breeze at dusk. Guests are encouraged to engage with the bartender to discover other Arak-inspired creations, promising a unique experience not found elsewhere.

 

 

As the sun dips below the horizon, the Ocean Bar transforms into a tranquil haven where visitors can unwind, embracing the soothing sounds of the waves and the gentle rustle of palm leaves. The open-air setting allows the breathtaking beauty of Bali’s east coast to enhance the experience, fostering an atmosphere of refined luxury that invites quiet contemplation.

 

The Ocean Bar at Alila Manggis transcends the typical cocktail experience, offering a connection to Bali’s rich heritage, where each sip unfolds a story of the land, its people, and the traditions of Karangasem.
